Why is Dr. Kapasi an assistant professor?

After completing a long and arduous but rewarding training, I worked as an doctor in the community. I gave my patients an excellent level of care, but did nothing for the future doctors.

So, I decided to rejoin my residency alma mater, Tufts Medical Center/Tufts University School of Medicine as faculty.

I feel that education is so important for my patients as well as for the next generation of physicians. I do my best to engender a compassionate spirit in my trainees and feel that it helps me grow and stay current as a physician.
