About

Biography

Combining a unique approach to problem-solving with more than 20 years of experience as an Internal Medicine physician, I am employing a whole-person approach to healthcare in order to address the health challenges faced by Adults with Chronic Healthcare Needs (ACHNs).

I have a longstanding interest in the needs of underserved populations and in making health care more accessible to all. My research interests center on developing new strategies for health care delivery to complex patients. From 2012 to 2016, I led the OSUMC Healthy at Home program, which provided home-based primary care to persons with chronic illness and disability. At present, I am collaborating with The James Cancer Center on a trial of home-based primary care for patients with sickle cell disease.
