Philosophy of care | I apply evidence-based medicine to provide primary care that treats existing problems, prevents future issues and uncovers health risks. I firmly believe the best care is prevention. During the opioid crisis I gained experience managing substance use disorders as well as treating and preventing infectious diseases. My goal is helping patients better manage chronic conditions, prevent complications and hospitalizations, and establish healthier habits using all applicable therapies. | Why I entered medicine | Our large family valued health and work. One of my sisters was a nurse, and I watched her help our family, neighbors and in the clinic with her expertise and skills. That impressed me tremendously and gave me the impetus to pursue a medical career. It gives me a great satisfaction to help others in an immediate and concrete way, and to walk with them on their journey to healing. | Community involvement | My family and I just moved from New York, where I worked the past 30 years. I am looking forward to being involved in the community regarding environmental conservation and habitat preservation. We love animals. | Personal interests | I love to be with my family, which includes six dogs, two cats, two parrots and several chickens.

Philosophy of care | As an athlete growing up, teamwork has always been a huge facet of my life. This is no different in medicine, not just with staff but also with each and every patient. My philosophy has always been to work alongside you to help you with any illness or injury. I have also learned that it is extremely important to truly allow time for listening, as doing just this will solve many diagnoses. By working together, it is fascinating how much progress we can make. | Why I entered medicine | My dream ever since I was a little girl was to become a physician. I have always been very service-oriented, and being able to help others in need really allows me to find my purpose. I also consider myself a lifelong learner, and in the field of medicine, it is a necessity to be able to keep up-to-date with all of the fast-paced changes that constantly occur. | Community involvement | I have been very active in the community serving both at the local fire company and ambulance station. I have been an active member at South Cass Citizens’ Fire Company (Primrose) and Minersville EMS for the past 15 years. Fire and EMS calls provide a much different environment compared to a controlled office or hospital setting, and they allow me to be involved in the initial stabilization and treatment of patients on some of their worst days with the hope of making things better. I am also a lector at Saint Michael the Archangel Parish in Minersville. | Personal interests | I have what I consider to be a second career as a soldier in the Pennsylvania Army National Guard. I am currently a Captain in the Medical Detachment at Fort Indiantown Gap in Annville, Pa. My dream growing up has always been to serve both my country and community, and this opportunity allows me to do just that. | My family is certainly the most important part of my life. They have been by my side through all of the ups and downs, always there to encourage me when I had doubt. Without them, I would not be where I am today, and for them, I am and will always be truly thankful. | In my spare time, I enjoy exercising often (I use this as my stress reliever), and of course making up for lost calories by eating ice cream!.

Philosophy of care | My philosophy of medicine encompasses a comprehensive approach. I like my patients to take an active role in their health care and allow me the privilege of helping them make the best decisions for them. Patients don’t fit a mold. They are unique. Getting to know them and their loved ones is the best way for me to gain insights into their specific needs and concerns, and allows me to help them achieve their individual goals. I treat patients using both conventional medicine and osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) when appropriate. OMT is an additional practice I learned in medical school that connects the musculoskeletal system to systemic and localized disease, including everything from chronic aches and pains to more acute illnesses such as sinusitis and ear infections. | Why I entered medicine | I chose medicine to help patients travel through life making the best choices for their health and well-being. I find it empowering and intimate to be able to positively impact a patient’s life. It’s not something everyone gets to do, and I don’t take this privilege for granted. I continually learn from my patients so I can keep providing the best care possible. | Community involvement | Throughout college I participated in volunteer spring breaks. This included disaster relief after Hurricane Katrina helping victims in Texas and Mississippi. I was also involved in many Habitat for Humanity projects. | Currently, I’m involved with the Jim Thorpers bicycle team, which rides yearly in the Tour de Shore Charity Ride from Philadelphia to Atlantic City to raise donations for families of fallen first responders. | Personal interests | Growing up in Palmerton, Pa., I’ve always been a fan of the outdoors. A majority of my family and friends from high school still live in the area, and I return home regularly to see them. For the past year, friends in the Center Valley, Pa.-area have included me in a lot of their fitness endeavors. I recently completed my first half-marathon and will be running a second one in a few months.

Philosophy of care | I believe my main role is to teach. My patients benefit from my education, training, experience and expertise.

It is exciting and rewarding to help my patients improve their health. | Community involvement | Pack Committee Cub Scouts Pack 439 Assistant Den Leader Pack 439 St. Thomas More, Allentown | Personal interests | I enjoy family time, reading, music and short distance triathlons.

Philosophy of care | I believe in patient-centered care. I will observe, listen, evaluate and educate as we discuss your health, not only fulfilling your expectations, but also providing you the best possible care. Although the disease is the same, no two patients are alike. | Why I entered medicine | Coming from a family of medical professionals, medicine was the obvious choice for me. The value and satisfaction of helping an ailing person were instilled in me since childhood. Additionally, I find no greater joy than helping people while still pursuing my passion for medicine and science. | Community involvement | I have been involved with the Big Brothers Big Sisters of America program, and with health fairs offered by BAPS Charities, a global organization.
