Overview
When I was 15 years old, I witnessed my big brother succumb from bone cancer, which at the time had no effective treatment other than amputation. I shall always remember our family physician who did everything he could to provide solace to my brother as well as to my family. To this day, I am inspired by his example.What I want my patients to know about me:I treat my patients in the manner that I would want myself or a loved one to be treated, without exceptionWhat I do when I'm not seeing patients:My interests include reading, playing the guitar, gardening, watching movies with my wife Shelley, traveling and jogging on the Gettysburg Battlefield.
