Quality care is the most important thing I can provide to patients. I strive to listen to patients and build a partnership with them in their healthcare. This allows me to explain treatment options, develop a plan of care and coordinate follow-up visits. A key to health care is early prevention and education, and as a nurse practitioner, I have learned to focus on the whole person and not just an illness or disease. Outside of work, I enjoy spending quality time with my wife and three children. We are active in our church, enjoy the beach and traveling.
