I have always been interested in the sciences and thrive on being around people. It was a natural fit to become a physician. I also have a strong desire to help improve the general health of the people in my community. I believe prevention is key! Pursuing a balanced diet and doing regular exercise will keep you healthier than any medication that can be prescribed. My job is to try and get you off of medications, not put you on them! When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, playing soccer and tending to my rose bushes.
