I grew up in Southern California, but since finishing high school I have had the good fortune to live in several places, which has allowed me to learn from and experience different parts of the country. When I finished my internal medicine residency in Florida, my wife and I decided on another cross-country move, choosing the Northwest for its amazing scenery and culture.
About my practice
I am privileged to be an internist practicing primary care. I enjoy internal medicine for its rigor and breadth. I chose to practice primary care to develop a meaningful connection with my patients. In addition to providing preventive and acute care, I strive to educate my patients on their health. I take an evidence-based and scientific approach and at the same time believe in personalizing care.
How I thrive
I thrive when I strike a balance between work, play, and overall wellness. In addition to taking pride in my work, I feel that exercise and a balanced diet are key to satisfaction. I enjoy traveling, spending time with my family, and using gadgets.
