She began her career in internal medicine, which she still continues part-time, treating chronic medical conditions such as diabetes and hypertension. She also worked as a hospitalist for medical and ICU patients with complex wounds, fractures, and brain/spinal cord injuries. Now in the urgent care setting, Karina enjoys having the ability to immediately impact a patient, as well as see a wide variety of illnesses and injuries. She likes the challenge of not knowing who might walk in the door with what problem on any given day.
