What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? I'm passionate about helping my patients optimize their health so they can live life to the fullest! Helping you achieve the highest quality of life and being able to serve you in the ways that are the most important to you is my main goal. In your opinion, what should be the role of a primary care provider for a patient, taking into account both physical health and behavioral health needs? As your primary care provider I believe it's most important to consider the whole person, mind and body. Being the best provider requires being a good listener and focusing on helping you achieve total health through traditional means, preventive care, and natural wellness. I highly value excellence and integrity in all that I do. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I'm a husband and father of four wonderful children, 2 sons and 2 daughters. When I'm not serving my patients, you'll find me outdoors with my family cycling, hiking, walking along the beach, and breathing in the fresh air. As a family, we most value our time studying the Bible together.
