About our Doctor

I consider the relationship with my patients to be of the utmost importance to delivering quality care and am sensitive to the uniqueness of each patient’s situation and adapt my treatment recommendations accordingly. I am also committed to helping my patients enjoy a healthier lifestyle and I work with each one to address ways they can make better choices for their health. In addition to preventive health maintenance, my interests include managing high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, hypothyroidism, chronic lung disease, asthma, GERD, irritable bowel syndrome, arthritis, osteoporosis, weight management, women’s health issues, acute infections and travel visits.

Along with spending time with my husband and our five children, I enjoy running, kickboxing and reading.
