About
Philosophy of care
I believe in connecting and collaborating with you on our mutual goal of improving your health. I will tell you about all treatment options related to your specific diagnosis and strongly support you in deciding which treatment is best for you.
Why I entered medicine
I have a strong sense of service and an innate ability to connect with people. I spent more than 25 years in medicine in the U.S. Navy. Medicine allows me to spend time with people and help them to feel empowered regarding their health.
Community involvement
I donate to Shriners Hospitals for Children and to a Wounded Warrior foundation.
Personal interests
In my spare time I love to garden and grow flowers. I believe it is important to be a good steward of the land. I also love to travel and learn about other cultures and history.

Dr. Schmaltz's Care Team
What is a Care Team?
Your care team is a group of caregivers in a medical practice, including your physician and advanced practice clinicians (APCs) such as physician assistants, nurse practitioners and specialized registered nurses. They work together, collaborate to address your unique needs and ensure you always get the best care at the right time. APCs receive advanced training and routinely work alongside your physician.
How we care for you
What our team does for you involves so much more than what I do in the operating room. There’s a lot that goes into a good outcome and it starts with a highly trained, specialized and compassionate care team that gets you the right treatment at the right time. Our mix of personalities and strengths really works well together. My physician assistants and I have worked together for years, and we partner with you every step of the way. It comes together like a symphony. We hope that’s music to your ears.
