General Practice/Minor Surgery/Emergency Department
Biography
I enjoy seeing more of the United States and traveling the world.
Care Philosophy
I seek to treat patients as whole, not as a disease by listening to their concerns and trying to meet their needs while providing education on how they can better their health and their lives.
Area of Interest
I have been in practice in family medicine in Richmond since 1987, treating a range of patients — from pediatrics to seniors. I provide a range of care, including performing procedures to diagnose and treat problems of the upper and lower GI.
