About me

Hi, and thanks for visiting my Web page. As a Kaiser Permanente doctor since 2002, I've been fortunate to be in the dynamic field of family medicine. I’m happy to have a very supportive staff and office network, as this allows me to focus my attention on members.

Biography

As a native Southern Californian who was born here at the Kaiser Permanente Panorama City Medical Center, I feel that I bring a special understanding of the member base. I encourage members to take advantage of the wide variety of activities that Los Angeles offers. My family and I enjoy going to the beach, hiking the local mountain trails, and visiting local museums and gardens.

About my practice

Being a family practice doctor, I enjoy seeing members of all ages, from infants to seniors. Getting to know members is one of the many things that makes my job fun and interesting. I try to focus on getting members to make healthy changes in a nonjudgmental way and then come up with plans to make the changes together. Keeping the mind and the body stimulated is key to keeping members’ health strong.

How I thrive

One thing that I recommend to all members is daily exercise. I know it can be hard to stay motivated, so my way of staying focused is to set goals. I have been doing triathlons and other long-distance events for years, and now I have the opportunity to do them with my daughters. As a doctor, I consider it a privilege to be a part of the Kaiser Permanente family.
