Khalid Waheed, MD

My deci­sion to become a doc­tor was root­ed in my goal of under­stand­ing the basis of dis­ease and cur­ing the same. Med­i­cine to me is a pas­sion, a means to ful­fill my ambi­tion of serv­ing human­i­ty. My late father, and my moth­er, who I have seen strug­gle with Type 1 dia­betes since I was a child, have been my great­est inspi­ra­tion in becom­ing a doctor.

Pro­vid­ing the best pos­si­ble care to my patients in a car­ing, com­pas­sion­ate and respect­ful man­ner is what I strive for every day. I am extreme­ly friend­ly by nature and have a good sense of humor. I want my patients to treat me as a friend in their jour­ney to health and not feel intim­i­dat­ed. I want my patients to feel val­ued and know that they are not just a num­ber for me. I want my patients to trust me with their care and under­stand that I will always keep their best inter­ests in mind. I also want my patients to feel empow­ered and have a say when it comes to decision-making.
