My practice is open to new patients and families. I am a board-certified family practice physician. I have professional interests in pediatric care, preventive care and office procedures including mole removal, skin biopsies, IUDs and shoulder/knee injections. I speak Spanish.
Hometown: Spencer, Iowa
Best part of my work: Developing relationships with my patients over time and hearing a patient say they've referred a friend or relative to me for trusted care.
Why I became a physician: I've always loved people and science.
What I tell my friends and family: I often hear people say that they are too busy caring for "their family" (children, aging parents, etc.) to care for themselves. I remind them that they need to care for everyone in their family, including themselves.
How I spend my free time: Exploring new running trails and parks with my husband and our two young boys, visiting farmer's markets, playing piano, staying active in our faith community.
What patients say about me: Patients appreciate that I don't make them feel rushed, and that I am an empathetic listener. They also appreciate my thorough explanations and written instructions.
