"Philosophy of care | Finding health, not disease, is my goal. I look forward to discussing with you the six pillars of lifestyle medicine: Nutrition (eating whole foods). Sleep (seven to nine hours). Exercise (movement is medicine). Stress (harness it for better living). Risky substances (ways to avoid them). Relationships (seek strong social connections). | Why I entered medicine | The human being is a wonderful, complex, miraculous creation, and I have had a long-standing interest in health and healing. But medicine is my second career – I first worked as a chemical engineer. Today I apply to the practice of medicine those experiences in problem-solving, root cause analysis and process optimization. Rather than simply prescribing you another medicine to treat a symptom, I prefer to understand the root cause and, if possible, eliminate it. | Community involvement | I am excited to participate in the Lehigh Valley Blue Zones Project. I am so glad Lehigh Valley Health Network has made the choice to partner with Blue Zones to transform the health of our region in ""Making the healthy choice the easy choice."" | Personal interests | I enjoy pursuing a healthy lifestyle and sharing that passion with others.
