About Me
Biography
When not at work, I enjoy reading, water and snow skiing, and ice hockey. From middle school through college, I was an ice hockey player.
Care Philosophy
By discussing treatment risks and benefits, my patients can make more informed decisions about their care.
Area of Interest
I was drawn to cardiology for the positive impact I can offer my patients through a variety of treatment options. I enjoy all aspects of cardiac care and emphasize the advantages of prevention through nutrition, exercise and disease management. My interests include atrial fibrillation, aortic stenosis, cardiomyopathy, heart attack, heart failure, hypertension and mitral regurgitation.
