Typically, I care for patients when their primary provider is not available. I believe it is important to communicate well and share in the care of each patient by supporting their primary provider. 

I’ve been in health care a long time — first in Lab and X-ray, then continuing my education as a physician assistant. I care for each of my patients as if they are family.

My personal interests include gardening and farming.
