  Susmita Mookerjee

  MD

  For Dr. Susmita “Suzy” Mookerjee, the most rewarding part of working in healthcare is helping patients feel better, especially seniors. “When they’re feeling better, they start feeling more like themselves, and often their loved ones notice,” she says, while explaining the effect of senior health on the community. She values open communication and collaboration, explaining, “I respect their autonomy […] by providing meaningful care that optimizes their health.” She adds, “When a chronic condition is finally controlled and stable, the patient doesn’t just feel better, they can regain quality of life.” In her free time, Suzy can be found tending to her fruit and vegetable garden or enjoying various types of art.
