Overview

I was attracted to the field of medicine because its powers to heal, and I fell in love with primary care because of the opportunities to build healing relationships with patients and their families. I believe every patient's situation is unique and that health care is best delivered through a team with the patient at its center. I know i am doing my job as a primary care physician when patients feel empowered to take care of their health. I am married and have a young daughter, who is the absolute joy in our lives. In my spare time, I enjoy cooking and playing the piano.

After 20 years of clinical and research experience using low carbohydrate, ketogenic diets, I am continually amazed at how health can be improved by just changing the food that someone eats. I use an approach that is simple and effective, and evidence-based. Medical conditions, like type 2 diabetes, obesity, hypertension, GERD, fatty liver, and PCOS, can all be improved or even reversed through food. I am specialized in internal Medicine and obesity medicine, and I am the author of the books End Your Carb Confusion, The New Atkins for a New You, Keto Clarity, and Cholesterol Clarity.
