About me
I am originally from the Midwest and graduated from the University of Notre Dame. I attended the Medical College of Ohio, now part of the University of Toledo, and completed residency training at Anderson Area Medical Center in Anderson, S.C. I am licensed to practice medicine in the State of Georgia and am certified with the American Board of Family Medicine.
About my practice
I am a firm believer in preventive medicine. I would like to work with you to prevent you from getting sick. I think vaccinations are a cornerstone to wellness, so I strongly advocate for routine vaccinations to prevent harmful illnesses like the flu, tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis, Hepatitis B, meningitis, HPV, shingles and pneumonia. I also enjoy managing metabolic illnesses, like high blood pressure and diabetes. And I think statins are extremely important in lowering the risk of heart attack and stroke in certain populations. I will advocate for you to have routine cancer screening, when appropriate, and talk to you about healthy fundamentals, like diet, exercise and sleep hygiene. I like to manage pain and insomnia without pharmaceutical intervention, focusing instead on meditation, yoga, physical therapy, exercise and the absence of toxic substances, like alcohol and tobacco.
How I thrive
I have an active spiritual life and I belong to a gym so that I can work out in the morning prior to coming in to the office. I enjoy swimming, jogging and using weight machines to help me stay fit. I try to eat intentionally and I make sure I get my flu shot every year! I also enjoy spending time with my family and try to leave work, at work, at the end of my day. I enjoy reading fiction and non-fiction, and I follow several authors. Finally, I enjoy time spent in continuing education as I work to stay current with patient-oriented evidence based medicine.

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.
