About
Philosophy of care
I believe if you try to treat patients as you would like to be treated, then you are hopefully giving people your all. I offer you my absolute best.
Why I entered medicine
When I moved into the Lehigh Valley in 1985, I was fortunate to have amazing neighbors who quickly became like family. Sadly, years later, one of them was diagnosed with throat cancer, and I watched a strong, vibrant man become extremely sick. It made me want to pursue a career in the healthcare field. Today I am a certified physician assistant.
Community involvement
I serve on the board of our Greek Orthodox Ladies Philoptochos Society, which does charity work for the community.
Personal interests
Outside work I love spending time with my family and friends, and especially enjoy cooking for them.
