Purnima Popli, MD

As far back as I can remember, I wanted to be a doctor. I love learning about people and I find the human mind and body incredibly fascinating. Being a physician is an immense privilege and provides innumerable opportunities to help others.

I chose internal medicine because it provides a new set of challenges every day with diverse patients, conditions, and treatments. For me, internal medicine provides intellectual satisfaction and a deep fulfillment from building relationships with patients. I enjoy getting to know my patients, not just their diseases. I also enjoy the emphasis on health promotion and disease prevention.

I provide a full range of treatments for my patients, from primary and preventive care to more complex medical care.

I have learned many of life’s lessons through the stories, struggles, and triumphs of my patients. It is a great honor and privilege to be trusted by my patients with incredibly sensitive information. Belonging to a profession focused on healing others, regardless of circumstances, makes my job and my life fulfilling. I enjoy the opportunity to build meaningful long-term relationships with my patients.
