I believe that every appointment is forming or strengthening a partnership. I value communication and shared decision making between my patients and I. I want to ensure my patients are educated and understand all of their options; so that together we can formulate a personalized treatment plan which is right for them.

Personal Interests
I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, especially when we gather around a good meal. I am always on the lookout for new and interesting recipes to try. After a hearty meal I love being outdoors, I seize every opportunity I get to hike or be on a lake. I am also bookworm; I enjoy fiction and non-fiction alike. I always try to stay up on the latest research to continue to provide the best possible care for my patients.
