Practice philosophy: Together, we can accomplish the goal of creating the healthiest you, so that you may live life to the fullest.
Best part of my work: Being part of bringing new life into the world and seeing growing, happy families!
Why I became a physician: My mother took me with to visit her OB when she was pregnant with my younger sister. This inspired me to go into the medical field to help people with medicine.
What patients say about me: I'm often told by my patients that I treat them as if they were my sister or mother, and they appreciate the extra attention.
The best thing I have done for my health is: to incorporate my entire family into pursuing a healthy lifestyle. We exercise together during some of our family fun time and focus on eating well together.
I am most proud of: my three beautiful children. I enjoy watching my son and two daughters grow into wonderful people.
Some of my personal achievements: Summiting Mt. Fuji in Japan, leading medical mission trips in Kenya and Jamaica with my husband who is a pastor and becoming a Major and Flight Commander in the US Air Force.
