I want to ensure that patients are able to make an educated decision regarding their health care. My ideal vision of family medicine includes providing care to three generations, where I am the primary care provider to the grandparents, the parents, and the children. Understanding the dynamics of three generations of a family allows me insight into family medical history, family social dynamics, and family emotional stressors.

Like many, I took a circuitous route to medicine. I studied chemistry in college and thought that I would pursue a career in research or public health. While these areas still interest me, I gravitated to medicine because of a desire to work directly with patients on improving their health and well-being.

But I have a special place in my heart for children. I believe that each encounter with a patient is a time to get to know them and care for them. Hopefully, when the visit is over, they leave knowing more about their health and how to stay healthy. I truly feel honored to be a part of my patient’s lives. I am married with two young children.
