I enjoy working with patients, diagnosing their medical ailments and devising a plan with them to manage the issue whether it is with medication, additional testing or consultations with other medical providers. I enjoy teaching--it is important to me that patients leave with more information than what they came with and that their questions are answered. I see patients only in the emergency room.
Hometown: Lake Elmo
Best part of my work or a patient visit: Being able to listen, teach and educate. I enjoy meeting new people and learning about their life and who they are.
Why I became a physician/provider: I had a calling to be a physician since I was 10 years old.
What I tell friends and family: Take as few antibiotics as possible. Drink plenty of water.
How I spend my free time: I love to spend time with my husband and children. We enjoy reading, art, theater, remodeling, skiing, fishing and traveling.
What patients say about me: Patients have told me that I listen well and take time to educate them about their illnesses and how to stay healthy. They like that I appropriately refer them to integrative medicine providers.
Favorite health tip: Laughing eases stress, lowers blood pressure and boosts your immune system
Practice philosophy: I am here to serve--I'm the hands and feet of God.
