Overview

I am a physician assistant in endocrinology, specializing in metabolic bone disorders including osteoporosis. Having spent the first part of my career treating fractures in orthopaedics, I now enjoy working with patients to develop a comprehensive approach to their bone health. After growing up in the northeast, I fell in love with North Carolina and Duke University, where I met my wife. We have settled in Rougemont with our daughters and live on a farm with our dog, cats, and horses. We are members of the Congregation at Duke Chapel.

I also treat downstream problems of ascites, which cause abdominal swelling, or encephalopathy, which can affect your brain. My favorite part is being able to walk with people on their journey toward health and wellness. When you come to see me, you see a team practice. I work together with Dr. Andrew Muir and have since 2001. I hope you know that when you see me, you are seeing him because we are a team.
