About Me

As a family physician, I care for patients across all stages of life, often helping patients and families during some of the most complicated times of their lives. Whether it’s making a critical diagnosis or helping someone understand difficult news, helping patients navigate those next steps is the most important and rewarding part of my job.

My approach is grounded in staying current with clinical guidelines, understanding each patient’s unique perspective, and making recommendations that align with their goals and values. I believe in building strong, trusting relationships that help patients live well for as long as possible.

In addition to comprehensive primary care, I have particular expertise in diabetes management (both types 1 and 2), primary care procedures, the use of ultrasound for physical diagnosis and communication around serious illness.

I believe in building strong, trusting relationships that help patients live well for as long as possible.
