Hometown: Eagan, MN
I became a physician because: I enjoy the opportunity to help patients achieve a healthy lifestyle.
My favorite place to travel to is: Thailand because the people are friendly, there is so much to see and do and the food is incredible.
If I wasn't a physician, I would be a: fishing guide. There is nothing better than a day on the lake in Minnesota.
Something I have learned from my patients is: that each patient has his or her own strengths and motivations that help them recover from an injury.
The best health advice that I've heard is: the phrase "exercise is medicine." In my mind, there is no better thing that you can do for your overall health than finding some way to stay active and exercise regularly.
I am most proud of: seeing my son learning new things and having fun.
My favorite memories are: spending time with family and friends at the family cabin in Northern Minnesota.
