About us

I see being a doctor as a way not just to provide a service but also to serve in a role as an advocate for both patients and the community. This ability to work both on a day-to-day level with individuals as well as a broader capacity to serve communities is what drew me to medicine. Leading with my humanity has been the care philosophy on which I have relied most heavily. Approaching individuals in a way that is open and creating a space where patients feel welcome and safe is, I think, one of the most important aspects of what we do, and it allows us to be more attuned to patients needs inside and outside the clinic. My areas of interest are in the care of individuals with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis C in the primary care setting, using primary care homes as a way to optimize treatment of these conditions, and expansion of treatment on state and national levels of primary care involvement in the care of individuals with HIV, Hepatitis C and substance use disorders. Outside of work, I love spending time with my wife and two children, as well as playing music (guitar, banjo), reading, biking, and running.
