  David Onyabe

  MD, PhD

  Dr. David Onyabe used to work as a research scientist before pursuing medicine. He wanted to have a direct impact on patients and explains that his favorite part of being a physician is “the gratification of helping a patient improve their health.” To help build trust, he tries to learn at least one non-health related matter about his patients. “I consider it the highest privilege that a patient would trust me with their health,” Dr. Onyabe says. He appreciates the opportunity to educate people and likes explaining the connections between health and food. When not with patients, Dr. Onyabe loves spending time with his wife and children. He enjoys exercising and is an avid NFL fan. He also finds space exploration fascinating.

  Sapan Amin

  DPM, DABPM

  Dr. Sapan Amin has wanted to help people as a physician since he was in middle school—when he volunteered with the American Red Cross for hurricane disaster relief. He chose the path of a board-certified podiatrist after seeing close family members struggle with foot ailments and doing what he could for them as a child. “It’s rewarding to help today’s seniors live better by providing solutions for their foot ailments. I also love to learn about their lives; it often helps me uncover solutions.” When Dr. Amin isn’t building bonds with patients or keeping up with advances in podiatry, he likes to spend time with his wife. He also enjoys being outdoors, gardening, and traveling. Dr. Amin’s favorite trip so far was to Kenya, Africa.
