About me

I was born in Honolulu to a military family. We lived for a while in Germany and then came back to the U.S., where I grew up. I was fortunate to go to high school at the McCallie School, a residential college prep academy that’s highly regarded in Tennessee. I went on to do undergraduate studies in philosophy and history at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia and received my medical degree from Eastern Virginia Medical School. I did my residency training in general surgery at East Carolina University, where I was chief resident, and later did two fellowships, one in trauma and critical care at the University of Pennsylvania and another in cardiothoracic surgery at Virginia Commonwealth University. I’m a member of the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society.

 

I spent invaluable formative years under the mentorship of my father, who was a Lieutenant General in the U.S. Air Force. He was a master at making good decisions quickly and often seeing things before others did.

About my practice

Having great purpose in life is important to me. I wanted to serve others in a way that would make a powerful impact on their lives.

 

The areas of cardiovascular physiology, anatomy, and transplantation are inspiring and invigorating to me. It’s also been incredibly satisfying to achieve technical proficiency in the different surgeries I perform.

 

My main interests are surgery of the thoracic aorta, complex heart valve repair and replacement, coronary artery bypass surgery, arrhythmia surgery, heart failure, heart transplant, and mechanical devices that assist the pumping action of the heart.

 

I've held academic positions and taught medical students and residents. I’ve directed programs in cardiac transplantation and aortic surgery, and I authored an atlas on how to perform the maze procedure to treat irregular heart rhythm. I returned to Hawaii to serve this community during the peak years of my career.

 

To ensure that I’m aware of any changes in my areas of practice, I subscribe to the journals of professional organizations such as the Society of Thoracic Surgeons, the Heart Rhythm Society, and the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation.

How I thrive

I deeply appreciate Hawaii’s ideal year-round climate and the wonders it can do for overall health and wellness. I exercise daily and love to be in the water surfing, body surfing (especially with my family), diving, and scuba diving. I find the azure ocean to be magic for the soul.

 

I also enjoy hiking, which contributes to my goal of walking 10,000 steps a day. Keeping up with ever-evolving surgical techniques helps me stay sharp mentally, as does writing that I do for pleasure and intellectual stimulation. Mostly I value spending time with family, cooking big family meals, and traveling to learn about other cultures and destinations.

Accommodations for Individuals with Disabilities

Kaiser Permanente is committed to providing accessible facilities, services, and programs for all members, visitors and individuals with disabilities. In compliance with federal and state laws that prohibit discrimination based on disability, Kaiser Permanente provides:

  1. accessible exam rooms and medical equipment;
  2. free auxiliary aids and services to ensure effective communication with individuals with hearing, vision, cognitive, and/or communication-related disabilities, including qualified sign language interpreter services and informational materials in alternative formats (large print, audio tape/CDs, accessible PDFs or Microsoft Word documents, electronic texts/disks/CD-ROMS, and Braille); and
  3. access to service animals, except where the animal poses a significant health or safety risk(s) to others.

For more information about access to a specific facility or provider, or if you believe that Kaiser Permanente has failed to provide appropriate access or services or otherwise discriminated on the basis of a disability, please contact Member Services toll-free 1-800-966-5955 or TTY 711, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. or Saturday, 8 a.m. – noon. You may also contact or file a grievance with the Kaiser Permanente Civil Rights Coordinator in person, by mail, fax or email at: 711 Kapiolani Blvd, Honolulu, Hawaii 96813, civil-rights-coordinator@kp.org, or toll-free 1-800-966-5955, TTY 711.

The availability and use of the Kaiser Permanente grievance procedure does not prevent a person from filing a complaint of discrimination on the basis of disability with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office for Civil Rights or the Hawaii Civil Rights Commission.

Kaiser Permanente uses the same quality, member experience, or cost-related measures to select practitioners and facilities in Marketplace Silver-tier plans as it does for all other Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) products and lines of business and 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. 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.

A narrow network is defined as a tailored, tiered or high-performance network that has 80 percent or less overlap with a health plan’s broadest network offered to a member in any type of plan offered by that health plan. Kaiser Permanente does not have a narrow network with respect to its Marketplace plans. Members enrolled in Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) Marketplace plans have access to the same provider networks as members enrolled in all other KFHP plans.

Information about a practitioner is provided to us by the practitioner or is obtained as part of the credentialing process.
