About Me

My greatest satisfaction as a health care provider comes from the lasting relationships and friendships that develop over years of clinical practice.

I treat a variety of conditions including diabetes, thyroid disorders and osteoporosis.

I enjoy guiding patients in making informed health care decisions for themselves and their family members, as well as helping them navigate the challenges of our health care system.

After working for 37 years in a busy primary care and endocrinology practice at a major medical center in the Midwest, I moved to Vermont to establish a healthier lifestyle and enjoy all this beautiful state has to offer. I'm delighted to be here.

I enjoy guiding patients in making informed health care decisions for themselves and their family members.
