Dr. Sharma's interest in medicine began early, inspired by accompanying his grandparents to their medical appointments. "Watching how their vascular surgeon cared for them during difficult times made a lasting impression on me," he shares. "It sparked my desire to become a physician and ultimately led me to vascular surgery."

 He continues, "I chose vascular surgery because it allows me to care for patients with vascular conditions throughout the body and to follow them closely over time. I value the long-term relationships I'm able to build with my patients based on trust and continuity of care."

 Dr. Sharma is dedicated to providing compassionate, patient-centered care, treating each patient as if they were a member of his own family. "It's important to me to understand each patient's concerns and goals so we can work together to create a personalized treatment plan."
