                                    As a family practitioner I enjoy the opportunity to provide care for the entire family from newborns to seniors. I believe it is very important to involve the patient in the decision making process to provide the best care possible. Some of my special interests are sports medicine, dermatology, and office procedures. In my spare time I enjoy relaxing on the water, wakeboarding, snowboarding, and golf.
