Overview
I am a board-certified neurologist with specialty training in clinical neurophysiology, pleased to be practicing in my home state of Minnesota with the HealthPartners Neuroscience Department. While my focus is on the workup, diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy, I treat patients with a broad range of neurologic disorders, including stroke and Parkinson's disease. I also treat patients with symptoms of spells, confusion, weakness, numbness or incoordination. As a dedicated provider, I strive to be an advocate and health care partner for my patients. I also enjoy teaching patients, students and other health care professionals about topics in the field of neurology. When I'm not working, I enjoy time with my husband and children.
