About me
Since arriving in PA in 1998, I have been providing care for the families of Lancaster and York counties at LG Health Physicians Family Medicine Twin Rose Columbia and Wrightsville. My patients have ranged from newborns to the elderly, with all medical issues across their entire lifespan. I believe in establishing ongoing relationships with people for whom I can provide both preventive and therapeutic care. I view myself as a puzzle solver and do my best to keep my knowledge fresh. Teaching medical students and residents over the years has helped me keep my skills and knowledge current.
Of my many passions, I have dedicated extra time to advocating for reading to children from the womb through the early years of the child’s life, and I have spent extra time learning several gynecological and other office based procedures. I value teaching about proper nutrition and lifestyle changes to promote better outcomes.
I find building long-term relationships with multigenerational families is the most enjoyable part of practicing medicine.
My education and training
