About me
I was born in Edenton, N.C. I chose to practice medicine because I enjoy the rich rewards you receive when you help people not only get better, but achieve wellness. I also enjoy medicine because I love the challenge of problem-solving and the overall science of medicine.
About my practice
We see members suffering from a gamut of infectious diseases. Our primary member population is HIV/AIDS, but all types of infectious diseases are seen in the office and in the hospital by our practitioners.Infectious disease is at times a puzzle. It takes time and diligence to put all the pieces together. Our department works together as a team and strives to never leave a puzzle incomplete. I believe that it is essential to keep up-to-date with new treatment options and diagnostic tools. I also believe that there should be respect, care and compassion shown to each member who walks in our office or we visit in the hospital.
How I thrive
I believe in a healthy lifestyle that encompasses mind, body and spirit. I workout at a CrossFit® facility in Atlanta three to four times each week. I also try to eat well-balanced meals and be a spiritual person. In my free time, I enjoy watching sports and am a huge sports fan! I am a devoted follower of the New York Knicks, Yankees and Giants. I am also an avid reader, especially of non-fiction books.

Kaiser Permanente uses the same quality, member experience, or cost-related measures to select providers and facilities in Marketplace Silver-tier plans as it does for all other Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) products and lines of business. The measures may include, but are not limited to, HEDIS/CAHPS performance, member/patient complaints, patient safety scores, hospital quality measures, and geographic need. Members enrolled in KFHP Marketplace plans have access to all professional, institutional and ancillary health care providers who participate in KFHP plans' contracted provider network, in accordance with the terms of the members' KFHP plan of coverage. All Kaiser Permanente Medical Group physicians and network physicians are subject to the same quality review processes and certifications.
Kaiser Permanente uses the same geographic distribution consideration to select hospitals in Marketplace plans as it does for all other Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) products and lines of business.
