Care Philosophy
I believe every person, and by extension every patient, is unique. As such, I tailor my approach to patient care by the individual. Relying on my renowned education and training from national leaders - I aim to provide comprehensive, up to date, and evidence-based care to all my patients.
Specializing In
I specialize in diseases of the pancreas and biliary system as well as the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and colon. I have a special interest in cancers and pre-cancerous conditions of the GI tract, such as Barrett's Esophagus, Lynch Syndrome, and Familial Polyposis Syndrome. I am experienced in endoscopic mucosal resection of large lesions in the small bowel and colon. I offer a variety of procedures, including endoscopic ultrasound, ERCP, small bowel enteroscopy, and peroral endoscopic myotomy for Achalasia.
Interests & Activities
I am all about family, travel, and food! I love being outdoors. My kids and I enjoy our family bike rides together. I also enjoy solo mountain biking. I am a grill enthusiast and in my spare time I like trying different cooking techniques on my Big Green Egg. I am very fortunate to say that I have visited over 40 countries, and I look forward to every chance I get to travel and experience more people and cultures.
