Overview
Philosophy of care | Our health reflects our choices, but without education and access, all choices are limited. | Why I entered medicine | Fascination. Passion. A desire for lifelong learning. Medicine allows and creates the most intimate relationship possible: that between doctor and patient. | Community involvement | Long-standing volunteerism and partnership for local, state and national community, environmental, political and prevention measures. I’m an active teacher and have been a local and national leader in injury prevention and education initiatives. | Personal interests | Sport, history and art of all forms.
