About
Philosophy of care
I believe in building strong, lasting relationships with my patients based on mutual respect, and then guiding them to lead healthy lives.
Why I entered medicine
Medicine is a fine art and combines two of my interests. As an adolescent, I discovered a passion for mystery novels. I later found that the intricacies of human anatomy also sparked my curiosity. Becoming an Internist blended both passions. Daily, I am challenged in finding the best solutions for my patients.
Community involvement
I have appeared on Lehigh Valley public television and given advice on dealing with depression.
Personal interests
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my husband and two children. I am also a huge Philadelphia Eagles fan.
