OsteoarthritisofFoot near Winston Salem, NC

Biography: I always knew I wanted to work in healthcare and help others achieve their best physical and emotional health. Family medicine has allowed me to do just that. \n I have worked hard to become a good listener. I want my patients to leave my office feeling like their concerns and issues were heard and addressed. Unfortunately, we cannot cure every disease or fix every problem, but we can listen intently, validate concerns and provide support - and that can go a long way in helping patients. \n I was honored to win the 2003 Community Teaching Award from Wake Forest University School of Medicine and the 2019 Preceptor of the Year Award from Georgetown University. I am a past board member of the Community Care Center, a clinic for uninsured patients. \n My wife, Michelle, shares my passion for healthcare and helping others. She's worked as a physical therapist for about three decades. Our daughter is in the health and wellness business, and creates exercise and diet plans for her patients. Our son is studying marketing and business in college. I enjoy spending time with my family, camping, golfing with my buddies and occasionally just doing nothing.
