What I Do
I believe the best healthcare begins with listening. My goal is to build lasting relationships with patients and families, understand their individual goals and concerns, and work together to create personalized care plans. I strive to provide compassionate, evidence-based care that promotes wellness, prevents illness and supports patients through every stage of life. A special clinical interest is chronic disease management.
Why I Love My Work
I chose family medicine because it gives me the opportunity to practice comprehensive care and develop lasting relationships with patients of all ages and their families. It is rewarding to partner with people to help them navigate health challenges and celebrate improvements in their health and wellbeing.
Getting to Know Me
My favorite hobby is fishing — you can find me out on the boat in the summer or sitting on the ice in the winter!
