About
Philosophy of care
My philosophy of care is focusing on the GI system, while taking care of the whole child. I believe in developing a care team with family and caregivers of patients, and value shared decision-making. I will always make medical decisions for patients that I would want for my own children.
Why I entered medicine
I have always been interested in science. My favorite childhood activities were looking at droplets of water under my play microscope, using a home chemistry set and playing the game Operation. I was fascinated by science but drawn to medicine because I admired my mother's career as a nurse. Her dedication to the care of patients and the joy she received from it was contagious.
Community involvement
I am a youth sports coach.
Personal interests
I love spending time with my wife and four children. We love the outdoors; hiking, paddle boarding and visiting national parks. I also enjoy cooking and live music.

Comments
"Dr. Paul worked extremely well with my autistic child who has had AI problems. So he's a very good guy."
"Dr Paul is an amazing doctor and someone who I always refer to my friends when their children are having gastrointestinal issues. Dr Paul has caught many things that others have missed because he cares and investigates so much deeper than typical physicians."
"Dr. Paul was amazing. He asked a lot of questions, really tried to understand what my son was going through. He spent a very good amount of time with us, really digging into why my son is having problems. I would recommend him to anyone. My son was very comfortable with him. He has a wonderful bedside manner and is truly a helpful person. We were very pleased with the appointment."
