About me
Having grown up in Gwinnett County and having attended Norcross High School, it is particularly rewarding for me to practice pediatrics in the Atlanta area. I decided upon a career in pediatrics as an Emory student, where I volunteered for many years at Egleston Children's Hospital.
After studying chemistry at Emory and industrial engineering at Georgia Tech, I received an Air Force scholarship to Emory Medical School. My military service took me to the San Francisco Bay area and Albuquerque, N.M. As I was completing my military obligation, I received a postcard related to career opportunities with Kaiser Permanente in Atlanta. Fate brought me back to Georgia, as I now care for the children in the community I consider home.
About my practice
I am a general pediatrician who cares for children from birth until age 22. I have worked for Kaiser Permanente for over 25 years. I love establishing relationships with families and caring for children over many years. I have now taken care of some of my patients from birth, through their college years, and now they bring their children to me!
I believe in shared decision making and giving my families the information to make the best decision for their children. My goal is to make Kaiser Permanente your medical home. If you are expecting a child, I welcome you to schedule a video visit to get to know me better. I have a leadership role within Kaiser Permanente and have administrative responsibilities in addition to the time I spend with our patients in the clinic.
How I thrive
I have two children who are young adults. I now realize how quickly the time with your children flies by and I love to spend quality time with them exploring their interests. Somehow my son got me to jump out of an airplane with him at 14,000 feet when he turned 18!
To destress, I lift weights with a personal trainer 3 or 4 times each week. I enjoy talking about fitness and training with my adolescent patients. My wife and I look forward to vacation travels with our family.
