OVERVIEW
Why I Chose Medicine
I chose medicine as a career because helping people is very important to me. I want to leave the world a better place, and as a healer, I know I can have that effect.
Why I Chose My Specialty
I chose emergency medicine because I like to have very tangible evidence of my work. Looking at a repaired laceration, or at an improved EKG after I treat a patient having a heart attack, gives me concrete reinforcement that I am doing good for my patients.
Emergency medicine also provides an endless variety of patient problems and ages, so it's a continually renewing challenge.
Why I Like Kaiser Permanente
Practicing in a large group like Kaiser Permanente gives me ready access to every specialty. I can help my patients get the right diagnosis and the right treatment as quickly as possible. Kaiser Permanente also allows me to focus on my practice of medicine, rather than office management or billing.
Philosophy of Practice/Healing
I believe that the practice of …medicine is a mutual effort between the patient and the physician. The old model of the physician telling the patient what to do, and the patient passively listening, simply does not work. As a doctor I need to find out not only what your disease is, but how I can help you conquer it. Each patient is unique, and each solution should be, too. There's no single treatment that works for everyone.
Personal Interests
Living in the Napa Valley allows me to indulge in wine tasting and appreciating world-class restaurants. Then I go running or hiking to burn off the calories. I also enjoy travel and literature.

Data Transparency and Trust: Understanding WebMD Doctor Listings and Reviews
We know that finding the right doctor or provider is important to your health. That’s why we want to ensure you have confidence in the provider profiles and listings you see on WebMD Care. Our provider data is sourced from the physicians themselves as well as publicly available databases. Any doctor or provider who claims their profile by verifying themselves can update their information and provide additional data on their specialties, education, accepted insurances, conditions they treat, and procedures they perform.
All the physician and provider reviews on WebMD Care are provided by users just like you. Knowing these reviews provide insight into how other patients feel about a doctor, we maintain internal policies and protocols to ensure the quality and accuracy of all reviews. Providers are not able to remove or modify reviews on their own. Reviews can only be removed after an internal review by our customer service team.
We value your input and encourage you to reach out to our support team if you encounter any issues.
