About

Biography

My clinical interests include providing primary care for whole families. I am able to manage patients across the age spectrum and effectively transitions pediatrics patients with chronic medical conditions to adult specialists. My clinical interests include preventative medicine and chronic disease management.

I am concerned with improving the quality of care that each patient receives in a patient-centered environment. I was involved in creating the care coordination program in our ambulatory sites which provides team based support for patients with multiple chronic illnesses. I am currently helping the general internal medicine clinics with their implementation of Comprehensive Primary Care Plus through the CMS.
