About
Philosophy of care
My philosophy is holistic and personal. I believe in partnering with each patient and family to achieve the health results they desire. Currently I am focusing on patients with complex/chronic medical conditions. I apply integrative and functional medicine principles to uncover underlying body imbalances and use nutrition, medications, lifestyle changes and supplements to restore health. I consider myself a bit of a medical detective and enjoy using my detail-oriented nature to get to the bottom of a patient's health concern.
Why I entered medicine
I entered medicine to care for patients the way I would want my own family members cared for – with compassion, respect and giving 100% of my expertise to each person. Pediatrics particularly drew me to it. I see each child as full of beautiful potential, so focusing on disease prevention early in life resonated with my values.
Community involvement
My volunteerism has included Mary's Shelter, Allentown Bethlehem Catholic Young Adults, Meals on Wheels and a 2009 medical mission trip to Haiti.
Personal interests
I enjoy gardening, music and crocheting, as well as spending time with my husband, friends and my many nieces and nephews.
