I believe that receiving care is a highly personal matter and that the patient is the first priority. It is my goal to practice the highest quality medicine while empowering patients to become active participants in their own care. I strive to partner with each patient to fully understand their individual needs, preferences and concerns and to ensure the best possible path towards better health and quality of life.
Why did you choose UCHealth?
I was drawn to UCHealth for the positive culture of the health system as well as the professionalism and clinical expertise of its medical staff. I was particularly impressed by UCHealth’s ability to deliver the highest quality of care for patients diagnosed with a multitude of complex disease states. UCHealth’s collaborative and professional environment and access to the most advanced medical technology make it unique amongst other top medical centers throughout the country.
What led you to this profession?
I was drawn to cardiac electrophysiology by the fascinating disease states that lead to heart rhythm disorders and because of the rapidly advancing capabilities available for the treatment of these conditions. It is an honor to care for adults of all ages affected by cardiac arrhythmias and to find solutions for improving their health and quality of life.
