As an experienced family physician, I work together with my patients to help them achieve their best possible state of health, from infancy to old age. While women's health issues have always been a special interest, I enjoy the wide variety of people and problems that we treat in family medicine. We treat the whole person, not just one part or problem. This perspective is especially important for our older patients with many medical challenges, but helps patients of all ages and the medical students and residents that we are training for the future
