I'm a family practice physician with over 20 years of experience in family medicine and urgent care.

In urgent care, I treat all kinds of acute illnesses and minor injuries. I enjoy the fast pace and the variety it brings, but most of all, I appreciate the chance to help people feel better quickly.

When it comes to patient care, I believe in working together. I think it's essential for patients to be part of the decision-making process regarding their health. I aim to create treatment plans that make sense for each individual and their lifestyle.

Throughout my career, I've had the opportunity to work in various unique and meaningful settings—caring for communities near the U.S.-Mexico border in San Diego, practicing as a general practitioner in New Zealand and even serving as a doctor at science research stations in Antarctica.

Outside work, I love being outdoors, whether going on hikes, working in my yard or spending time with friends.
