Overview
Philosophy of care | I pride myself on being approachable and nonjudgmental, so patients feel comfortable having an open dialogue about their skin issues. I will listen and create a treatment plan together with you. | Why I entered medicine | Like many others in my profession I was good at science and wanted to help people. I look forward to working with you to improve your health. I find satisfaction in teaching others about their skin and how to take care of it. | Community involvement | I am involved in my congregation and volunteer at my local food co-op. | Personal interests | I enjoy spending time with my wife, children and rescue dog. My interests include bridge, birding and ballroom dancing.
