About Me

After living all over the country including New York, New Jersey, Virginia, Hawaii, Texas, and Maine, I finally decided to come back and settle where I first began my journey in medicine. I love living in Jacksonville due to the cultural diversity and the good mix of urban living. There are endless possibilities when it comes to activities and interests.

My philosophy of care has always been to provide quality, individualized care to each one of my patients. Through my day-to-day interactions, I have learned that understanding human interaction is crucial to exceptional treatment. I recognize that each person is a product of their experiences and environment which allows for individualized treatment.

I came back to Jacksonville because I think it is essential to give back to the community that gave me so much.
