About me
I grew up in New Jersey and did my training on the East Coast. During my internship, I fell in love with the Pacific Northwest. My wife got her PhD at the University of Washington, and we've been happily living here for the past 10 years. We have a beautiful and energetic young daughter. I chose to become a doctor to make a difference in the lives of my patients. I've always enjoyed getting to know my patients and their families and partnering with them to achieve their eye health goals. I was named one of Seattle Met magazine's Top Doctors in 2014, and I'm a regular speaker at provider education events. I chose to join Kaiser Permanente because of the amazing team of doctors and staff who provide great care for patients. I feel fortunate to have access to the group's vast knowledge and expertise. I believe the team at Kaiser Permanente is uniquely equipped and well positioned to offer the greatest benefits of our future health care system.
About my practice
My areas of expertise include general ophthalmology, cataract surgery, and ophthalmic laser procedures. I strive to ensure that my patients feel comfortable and empowered to be involved in their health care decisions. I enjoy developing relationships with my patients over time -- built on trust, listening carefully to their concerns, and taking time to provide education to help them understand their options. I feel very fortunate to work with a great team who is dedicated to improving the quality of patients' lives through our collective knowledge and scientific breakthroughs.
How I thrive
Spending time with my family is the source of my inspiration. We love to explore, garden, and work on projects together. I enjoy staying fit by exercising every day, and I especially like running and hiking. When we're not exploring the outdoors as a family, we like hanging out at home playing games, doing puzzles, and trying out new recipes.

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.
