About
Philosophy of care
My philosophy of practice centers around two basic principles: First, each patient is an individual with unique experiences, morals and beliefs that deserve to be incorporated into the plan of care. Second, my job as a physician is to boil down the most up-to-date medical literature and information available to help guide the decision-making process for both patients and families alike.
Personal interests
Spending time with my family is the most important thing in my life. In my spare time I enjoy exploring nature with my family and dog, woodworking, gardening and exercising to stay sharp.
