Philosophy of Care

“I aim to provide my patients with the highest quality, most comprehensive care possible while appreciating each patient’s uniqueness and individualized needs. I value getting to know my patients and their families so as to provide them with compassionate, holistic care. I believe that patient education, individually-tailored to each patient’s needs, is crucial for patient engagement and provides patients with the tools needed to be an active, informed participant in their care."

Personal

I grew up in a very small northwestern Minnesota town, but have lived in St. Paul since moving away for college. I am married, no children yet, but I do have a miniature Australian shepherd, named Midge, who keeps me on my toes. We greatly enjoy our walks around Como Park and our neighborhood. In my free time I enjoy getting together with friends to play board games and catch up.
