Who is Dr. Vana

Why I Became a Doctor

I was five when I decided to become a doctor. A visit with Dr. Ball shaped everything. His office felt like a neighbor’s living room. He listened, taught, and spoke to me with respect. I left saying, “I am going to be a doctor when I grow up. A doctor like Dr. Ball.” That day set a simple mission for my life. Be kind. Be a good doctor.

How that guides my care today

You get my full attention and clear explanations. We build your plan together. I investigate labs, imaging, and symptoms looking for trends and patterns, so your care is precise and personal.

Promise to patients

Partnership matters. Evidence matters. Your role is to share what matters most so the plan fits your life. My role is monitoring, interpreting and guiding to keep you on track to achieve the health you desire.
