A CU Medicine provider.
Treat all patients to the best of my ability, as I would want to be treated. Individualize each patient’s treatment based on his or her specific needs and desires. I tell our fellows, residents and students when faced with a clinical dilemma of what to recommend for a patent, “just put yourself in their shoes when possible and the decision should become very clear.”
I enjoy electronics/technology/internet/history, trail running, hiking, skiing, mountain biking, crossfit and spending time with my family.
