I enjoy seeing all ages of patients, and I especially enjoy caring for entire families across multiple generations.  I believe that prevention is the greatest medicine, backed by sound evidence.  I manage a wide range of chronic illnesses, but also enjoy seeing pediatric patients as well.  My approach to care is very relational, and I believe that listening is one of the greatest skills a provider can learn.  I believe that we exist for the patient, not the other way around.

Outside of medicine, I enjoy time with my family, being active outdoors in any capacity, science fiction (Star Wars is far greater than Star Trek), and aviation.
