With her love for science and strong desire to help others, it wasn’t surprising that Nairi chose medicine as a career. “I really enjoy the challenges that come with a medical career,” she explains. “You never stop learning when you work in medicine.”
In her work at Reliant, Nairi strives to treat the patient as a whole, rather than just the disease. She believes strong relationships are the key to good care. “In order to build a strong and trusting relationship with my patients, I believe it’s important to take into consideration who they are on a holistic level, including their emotional well-being, their lives at home, and their work-life,” she explains. “I am also very passionate about preventative care and encouraging my patients to become proactive in achieving their healthcare goals through effective communication and education.”
Nairi appreciates the continuity of care that Family Medicine provides and the long-lasting relationships that it allows her to build. “During my clinical rotation in school, I was never satisfied after only seeing a patient once or twice – I wanted to follow them throughout their entire journey. That’s why I knew Family Practice was perfect for me.” Nairi has a special place in her heart for working with the elderly, “They always make me laugh or smile and really just make my day,” she explains. “They are just great to work with.”
When she is not busy with patients, Nairi enjoys spending time in nature, running, hiking, playing the piano, cooking, traveling, as well as spending time with her family, friends, and beloved her cats and dogs.
