Acerca de Yo

I moved from the Northeast to Jacksonville in 2013, and although I still miss the snow, I continue to appreciate Jacksonville's sunshine and the ability to spend all year outdoors being active. I enjoy swimming, biking, hiking and have started running - despite not being very good at it yet!

I think that when caring for patients, the most crucial thing a physician can do is listen. I try and make sure that a patient has all the information needed to make informed decisions about their care, and feel confident enough to ask questions and advocate for themselves. Ultimately, I think trust between patients and their providers is essential and I strive to establish relationships with my patients in which they feel comfortable and empowered.
