Meet Arvind: “I’m running because I’ve served our community through crises big and small, and now I want to continue to bring that experience to Harrisburg and help Pennsylvania move forward.” (Campaign website)
“My life has always been focused on family, service, and community. My parents immigrated to the United States, and I saw how hard they worked to build a good life for our family. It was this ethic of hard work and commitment to service that inspired me to become a physician.” (Campaign website)
“As an ER doc, I care for any patient that comes through the doors of the hospital, no questions asked. I have always believed that the ER should not only treat patients in crisis, but also work to address the health issues facing our community.” (Campaign website)
Meet Arvind: “I have always looked for ways to give back to the community that has meant so much to me and my family. I served on the McCandless-Franklin Park Ambulance Authority where I worked to make sure our vital EMS services are available for our entire community.” (Campaign website)
