Best part of my work: Every time I deliver a baby, I am amazed at what a miracle of new life I am privileged to welcome into the world. It is also rewarding when patients begin to feel better after implementing a plan that we have worked on together.
Why I became a physician: I chose to practice family medicine because I enjoy walking with my patients through a wide variety of health events, from birth to death.
What I tell my friends and family: Try to be intentional about creating margins in your life.
How I spend my free time: Caring for my three small children. I'm always for another good book. I enjoy reading, hiking and traveling.
What patients say about me: I've been told that I'm a good listener. I try to show all of my patients respect.
Practice philosophy: I aim to provide my patients with information and resources to help them make the best choices for themselves regarding their health.
