About
Philosophy of care
I strongly support patient autonomy. I see part of my job as providing information, discussing treatment options and helping women make choices they feel is best for them. Supporting my patients' informed decisions is integral. I give my patients the advice I want my wife, mother and daughter to receive from their gynecologists. I'm compassionate and practice evidence-based medicine.
Why I entered medicine
Obstetrics and gynecology provides an opportunity to practice lifelong continuity, preventive medicine, primary care and medical-surgical treatment. Sharing the experience of childbirth with a family is tremendously rewarding.
Community involvement
I spent a total of 12 years in the U.S. Army, eight of those years as an OB/GYN. The leadership and training I received were invaluable and provided me with a solid foundation. Along with other LVHN heath care providers, I have visited Haiti twice in 2017 working with The Haiti Health Trust. I also participate in the Haiti Medical Education project and video-lecture medical and nursing students as well as OBGYN residents throughout Haiti.
Personal interests
In my spare time, I do whatever my kids ask me to do. If I were not practicing medicine, I would be a tornado chaser or auditioning for the E Street Band. Becoming a super-delegate would also have perks.
