From the Doctor
I worked as a middle school teacher before moving to Mexico for medical school and meeting my wife, who is from Guadalajara.
Now, we stay very busy with our two daughters. We attend Beaches Vineyard church, and enjoy biking and going to the beach. We love that Jacksonville is located so close to Orlando and its family entertainment.
For the convenience of my patients, I perform a number of in-office procedures and also teach them how lifestyle changes can lead to weight loss. I believe that good preventive care is the key to improving quality of life.
