I am a board-certified physician specializing in obstetrics and gynecology, delivering at the new Mother Baby Center at Mercy with Children's. I enjoy caring for women of all ages. I have always enjoyed prenatal care and have felt fortunate to be part of the birth experience. More recently, I've been performing daVinci assisted surgery and have been pleased with the results and how quickly patients return to their daily lives.
Hometown: St. Peter, MN
Best part of my work: I enjoy postpartum and post-op visits. It’s great to see how well my patients are doing; I feel fortunate to be a small part of this important time in their lives.
