Core Beliefs About Practicing Medicine:

I am strongly determined to provide each patient with excellent care. Treating the whole person is important to achieving good health and managing chronic medical conditions. Patient education is key for patients to be a partner in their healthcare. I enjoy managing chronic conditions, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes, in order to prevent risks associated with those illnesses. I also treat acute problems, women's health issues, and perform well exams. I enjoy getting to know my patients and their family members, and am dedicated to providing excellent healthcare.


My Interests/Hobbies:
Traveling, reading, cooking, spending time with family.
