I am a patient-focused provider who enjoys the collegial, collaborative atmosphere of Kaiser Permanente and the benefits it offers patients. I listen carefully to each patient's individual concerns and treat them as I would a close friend or family member. While working with patients over a long period of time, I enjoy getting to know them on a personal level and sharing in their challenges and triumphs.
