Overview
As a primary care physician, I enjoy partnering with patients to improve their health and prevent problems that could get in the way of how they want to live. Please bring me any issues that are bothering you, so I can help treat them or get you to the person who can. I love internal medicine as it allows me to see a wide variety of conditions and take care of complicated patients. Having been an Army physician previously, veterans and their families are among my favorite groups to treat. When not at work, I enjoy weightlifting and CrossFit, cooking, traveling, and playing with my three sons.

Duke Primary Care Heritage Internal Medicine
I have been practicing internal medicine since 1998. I enjoy the daily challenges of taking care of complex diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, and hypertension (high blood pressure). In addition, I have a strong interest in preventative medicine and preventing diseases before they become a problem. I was born and raised in Pennsylvania. In 2014, I made a decision with my family to move to the Raleigh area to be part of a growing community with a great future. My family and I love spending time together outdoors and look forward to the warmer climate here. I am honored and privileged to be a part of Duke Primary Care.
