About me
I was raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and still have family there. My father was in the United States Army, which is why I spent my early years in Germany. Apparently, I was fluent in German until the age of four. Sadly, I've forgotten most of it, despite relearning it in high school. I served in the US Navy for more than eight years. I finished my military career at Naval Hospital Bremerton in 2002. I am happily married to my supportive wife. We have two amazing adult kids and a wonderful daughter-in-law.
About my practice
My father was an internist. I watched him care for people and develop deep relationships with his patients over many years, and I always admired that. I have practiced in multiple practice settings, large and small. I was impressed with Kaiser Permanente's emphasis on patient-centered care and its efficient health care delivery system. The organization also fosters a supportive work environment, motivating providers to strive for excellence daily. I try to get to know what my patients' goals so that my care is geared toward helping them live their best life. I also aim to use evidence-based medicine to inform their decisions and to make sure they are aware of opportunities to improve their care. I enjoy the challenges inherent in practicing medicine. Getting to know patients and their friends and families is important in my practice, and also a privilege.
How I thrive
I enjoy most sports, and I'll play nearly anything for fun. I am an active member in my church, and I love the outdoors in general. I rely on eating well, sleeping regularly and a fitness plan to stay sharp and motivated. Active vacations also help.

How we choose our network providers and hospitals
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.
