I take pride in helping patients navigate complex medical decisions by explaining diagnoses, lab results and treatment options in clear, simple terms. I encourage my patients to be active participants in their healthcare, ensuring they feel informed and empowered. \n Outside of medicine, I am a devoted husband and father of three. I enjoy playing sports with my children, traveling and cooking. I am a big fan of all things Disney. My interest in sports medicine has led me to volunteer at local high school football games, where I provide medical support to young athletes.
