Professional Statement
I have always loved science and can still remember my first microscope and miniature plastic skeleton set, so this subject passion was ever present in my life. Science alone, however, could not provide the holistic balance a person needs to obtain good health. My goal is to partner with my patients to help bring together their unique balance and find the path that works best.
I enjoy treating a broad age range of patients, from infancy to elderly. At my practice I see patients for preventative, chronic, and acute care issues. This may include issues such as childhood immunizations, sports and yearly physicals or high blood pressure, diabetes, and rashes.
A team-based approach describes my style of practice well. I am a very caring person and want to see my patient reach their goals. This team approach to health and wellness happens through good, and sometimes hard, conversations and trust as to how to improve or continue on their positive path forward.
Seeing successful and meaningful changes to my patients’ health brings me great joy.
Outside of work, I enjoy exercising and sports including soccer, racquetball, and golf along with music, reading, cooking, and spending time with family and friends.
