A little about me

Avni Mittal completed her medical education at New Jersey Medical School where she developed a passion for addiction medicine, health equity, and reproductive justice. She has always prioritized compassionate care and fostering genuine relationships with patients and loves that family medicine allows her to form long term relationships with her patients while providing support and access to information and community resources. Outside of medicine she likes to sketch, quilt, and learn new skills!

Why I love my job

I love that family medicine allows me to partner with patients and the community to increase their access to care and ultimately improve their health outcomes. I want to be the first point of contact for patients: a bridge between them and the medical world, providing support and access to information, and hopefully reaffirming their ability to engage with and trust the healthcare system.
