Best part of my work: Developing long lasting relationships with my patients and helping them navigate the complicated medical system through well visits and visits dealing with acute and chronic medical problems.
What I tell my friends and family: Get enough sleep (8+ hours), eat well, exercise daily, read daily and remember that there is no such thing as a stupid question.
How I spend my free time: Playing with my kids, odd jobs around the house, traveling, walking and biking along Minnehaha Parkway, playing golf with family and friends, tinkering.
What patients say about me: Patients often say that they appreciate how I am respectful of their time by running on time nearly every day. They also appreciate my open and honest approach to their medical care.
Practice philosophy: I enjoy treating entire families. That is what I am trained to do.
