About

Philosophy of care

Being told you require surgery can be a difficult thing to hear. It's important that patients and their families have a full understanding of what is about to occur, including preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative expectations. Every patient should have access to high-quality care close to home.

Why I entered medicine

I entered medicine because I was fascinated by the science and art of treating patients and the field’s ever-evolving research endeavors.

Community involvement

I've been involved in research projects, making presentations on regional and national levels. I have also moderated research events.

Personal interests

I enjoy music and have played the guitar for many years. I also enjoy traveling as often as possible.
