About Me
I moved from Ireland to Jacksonville, FL as a young child and have made Jacksonville my forever home with my husband, two beautiful children, and fur baby. When I am not caring for my patients, I enjoy traveling and quality time with friends and family.
My philosophy of care is approaching healthcare holistically- incorporating the patient's physical, psychosocial, cultural, and spiritual well-being into their care. I strive to provide the best care for my patients.
I feel that educating and mentoring medical professionals, especially in these times, is extremely important. I precept, tutor, and mentor future medical professionals and help guide them as needed.
