About Me
Working in endocrinology requires a certain openness and curiosity. I chose this specialty because I enjoy evaluating how hormones affect every organ system in the body. I appreciate the spectrum of scientific knowledge present in this ever-growing field and am excited to continue applying my skills within the clinical setting.
I care for adult patients who have endocrine conditions such as type 1 or type 2 diabetes. This care includes insulin pump management and the interpretation of readings from continuous glucose monitors. In addition, I manage thyroid and parathyroid disorders, osteoporosis, and adrenal and pituitary gland diseases. I also prescribe medication to help manage obesity. My other specialties include reproductive medicine and transgender medicine.
I enjoy the challenge of making diagnoses and creating personalized treatment plans for my patients. I am committed to providing high-quality, evidence-based care. I take the time to understand and address people’s individual health concerns and needs. My goal is to empower patients and to prevent disease progression and its associated pain and suffering.
I am grateful for the opportunity and privilege to cultivate long-term relationships with my patients and am excited to serve my community.
