From the Doctor
I provide comprehensive, easily accessible, family-oriented care that responds to each patient's individualized needs. I've formed close connections with my patients and my community because I've lived in Fernandina Beach my whole life. After three decades of practice, I'm more committed to helping patients and families than ever before.
I believe that long-term relationships in health care make a greater difference in people's lives than high-technology care. Most of the good we do in medicine is in working with patients and their families to prevent illness, rather than waiting for it to happen and then trying to fix it.
When I'm not spending time with my own family, I volunteer at the Barnabas Samaritan Clinic and am a member of the Rotary Club and St. Peter's Episcopal Church. I also enjoy performing and listening to music.
