Philosophy of Care:

I became a nurse practitioner to connect with my patients and help them achieve their wellness goals as a provider. I prioritize getting to know my patients and doing whatever I can to alleviate their pain, so I can get them back into the activities they enjoy. I try to treat pain at the source of the problem, but also take into consideration the patient as a whole to determine feasible functional outcomes for them.
