About

Philosophy of care

I provide the best medical care I can, which means treating you as a family member. I often think, if this was a close family member, what would I do? I also find it important to give patients my full attention when speaking with them. Emergency rooms can be very busy places, but I want to make sure you are being heard.

Why I entered medicine

I have always been interested in science and engineering. Being a physician involves using your knowledge of medicine, biochemistry, physiology, pathology and anatomy to help people with an injury or illness. That is something very special, and I enjoy having an impact on people’s lives.

Community involvement

I donate blood through the American Red Cross.

Personal interests

I enjoy reading, especially things on science, engineering and economics. I like playing tennis, exercising, traveling, and everything to do with aviation.
