I believe the most important tool I can give patients is teaching them to live well. My medical training was exceptional; I learned how to manage disease states and thoughtfully use diagnostic tools to properly identify patient’s illnesses and manage disease with medical treatments. The most important tool is prevention of those chronic and acute illnesses along with education on how to maintain that optimal well state. I have always believed that my role in my patient’s lives is to educate them, sift through the wealth of medical knowledge, distill the most pertinent information and collaborate with them to create a customized healthcare plan.

By creating a small practice with patients who believe in preventive care and are active participants in their path to wellness is where I can make the biggest impact. I am excited and honored to be a part of this collaboration. I will continue to educate myself and share my knowledge with each of my patients. Together we can achieve that goal of optimal wellness and health in all of our lives.

I am a long time resident of the North Country. I enjoy the snow and the outdoors and I am committed to this area. I love what I do both personally and professionally and find fascination in continuing to expand my knowledge on both realms. Being a physician is not what I do, it’s who I am. I learned long ago I cannot separate the two. I am so honored to be a part of my patient’s lives and am continually amazed by their accomplishments abilities. I respect the responsibility you all entrust in me and will continue my commitment to give you the finest care that I can.
