Why should someone choose you to care for their health?
My passion for medicine stems from family influence. This allows me to be a team player with my patients to work together for the best outcome. I strive to be my patients greatest advocate with honesty and candor.

What is the most important thing your patients should expect from their professional relationship with you? What do you expect from them?
My main expectation is that we work together in making the best decision for each individual patient; with family & ancillary involvement in order to reach the goal of each patient.

How do you spend your valuable personal time when you’re not caring for patients?
I enjoy spending time with my family in this beautiful community where I grew up. My wife and I enjoy attending our sons activities at school and at sporting events.

Why did you choose your specialty and what is its greatest reward?
My greatest passion is dealing with patients as a whole while treating them medically. Internal medicine strikes the chord that allows me to treat each individual wholistically in their own environment and family.
