About

Philosophy of care

My philosophy is to treat patients holistically, incorporating mind, body and spirituality into the care plan.

Why I entered medicine

From a young age, I felt a calling to go into medicine as a service for patients in need.

Community involvement

I grew up in central Pennsylvania and I look forward to practicing in my home state and being closer to my family.

Personal interests

I enjoy teaching and medical education. My mother was an elementary school teacher for over 30 years and instilled in me a love of education. I also love trying new restaurants and going to local events with my wife, who also is a doctor.
