My philosophy of care is rooted in the belief that health care should be patient-centric, holistic, and compassionate. I am committed to treating each individual with the utmost respect and empathy, recognizing their unique needs and preferences. I view health care as a collaborative partnership between the patient and provider, where open communication, active listening, and shared decision-making are paramount.
I prioritize not only the physical well-being of my patients, but also their emotional and psychological health, understanding that these aspects are interconnected. Ultimately, my philosophy revolves around the core principle of enhancing the overall well-being and quality of life for every patient that I have the privilege to serve.
I have over 30 years of clinical experience serving the Yampa Valley.
I enjoy bicycling, hiking, camping, fishing, and all other outdoor activities that Colorado has to offer.
