About
Philosophy of care
Every patient deserves the same attention, dedication, compassion and expertise I would give to my own family. I respect each patient’s individual rights above all else, and always aim to allow them to make the most informed decisions regarding their medical care. Even in the darkest of days, everyone deserves a partner in health care.
Why I entered medicine
As a fourth-generation surgeon in eastern Pennsylvania, I have always been drawn to the field of surgery. The ability to tangibly heal through surgery affords me one of the greatest opportunities to help my community in a meaningful way. My trauma and emergency general surgery skills allow me to provide for those in dire need of life-saving care.
Community involvement
I am involved with my children's school, as well as trauma outreach and community education.
Personal interests
I enjoy outdoor activities: fishing, hiking, biking, hunting, sustainable forestry, golf, gardening and many others.
