I love getting to know my patients. Not just their medical problems but them as people. I like to know about their personal interests, hobbies, their job history, their families, etc.

Background

I excelled in math and science in school and always knew I wanted to be a doctor of some kind, even as a small child. For many years I wanted to be a veterinarian but when I realized I couldn’t just sit and cuddle the animals all day, I decided to switch towards caring for people instead. I even get to hug some patients from time to time!

I love getting to know my patients. Not just their medical problems but them as people. I like to know about their personal interests, hobbies, their job history, their families, etc. This is why I enjoy Family Medicine so much as I love taking care of families and to see how family dynamics can impact a person's health.

I love the challenge and the puzzle of medicine, and the ability to get to know people's stories and the things that made them who they are today.

Background

Worked in ER medicine for 5 years and at the University of Kentucky Trauma Surgery for 6 years before changing to primary care. Becoming a PA was a second career after working in research for several years. I was always curious about what our research was doing to patients, how it was translating from the bench to the bedside. I love the constant opportunity to learn and challenge myself in medicine. The longer one practices medicine, the more they know, and the more knowledge they can impart to help people. That’s a special gift. 

Education

  • University of Kentucky, Undergraduate and PA School

I love being able to connect with patients, not just in regards to their medical conditions but also their family, interests and hobbies.
