About

Philosophy of care

I provide comprehensive medical diagnoses of a deceased individual to their family members and to investigative agencies in a dignified, respectful and timely manner.

Why I entered medicine

I entered the medical field to complement my biomechanics training and understand how injury and disease processes can be mitigated to reduce morbidity and mortality.

Community involvement

I retired from the United States Air Force with 32 years of service, more than 20 of them as an active-duty physician.

Personal interests

In my free time I enjoy hiking, biking and outdoor events.
