I am a board-certified physician specializing in obstetrics and gynecology, delivering at The Mother Baby Center at Mercy with Children's Minnesota in Coon Rapids.
Hometown: New Orleans, LA
Best part of my work: I enjoy helping patients find and navigate a pathway to better health.
Why I became a physician: When ill as a baby, my mother sought help and several physicians discounted her concerns. Being a nurse, she obtained yet another opinion which was to proceed with surgery. Thereafter my health improved. This story has inspired me to listen carefully, seek minority opinions and search for novel solutions when customary medical practice fails.
What patients say about me: I'm often told that I am detail oriented and thorough.
What I tell my friends and family: People do not care about how much you know, until they know how much you care.
How I spend my free time: Spending time outdoors.
Favorite health tip: Moderation.
Practice philosophy: Less is often better.
