About Me

I've always been drawn to science and helping people. Growing up, I wanted to become a physician. My role as an endocrinologist and metabolic bone specialist gives me the opportunity to coach people dealing with what can seem to be daunting disorders. I find academic medicine to be rewarding and enjoy training future generations with the most current medical literature and research.

I specialize in diabetes, osteoporosis and general endocrinology. My research interests include diabetes and osteoporosis.

My training as a doctor of osteopathic medicine (DO) has formed my practice, offering a holistic approach. I enjoy working closely with patients in a partnership to help provide the best care plan tailored to their needs.

I've always been drawn to science and helping people.
