About Me

Biography

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and two sons, serving the community and going to the theater. I am a classically trained violinist and still enjoy listening to classical music.

Care Philosophy

Through compassion, dedication and thoroughness, I care for my patients as if they are my family members.

Area of Interest

I was drawn to family medicine because it allows me to care for the whole person. The practice of family medicine also gives me the opportunity to develop lifelong relationships with generations of Northland families. My interests include:

  • Cholesterol, diabetes and hypertension management
  • Family planning
  • Joint injections
  • Laceration repairs
  • Preventive care
  • Skin lesions and biopsies
  • Smoking cessation
  • Women’s health
