I was born in Baltimore, Maryland and grew up the oldest of 3 brothers. My parents owned and ran a "5 and 10" store. During high school I worked there as a "Framer" until I went to college at the University of Delaware. There I majored in Computer Science but concentrated in Science and got a minor in biology. I spent time doing medical research and realized what I really enjoyed was working with people.
This led me to Hahnemann University for medical school in Philadelphia. There it did not take me long to realize that I just enjoyed prevention medicine and helping people. Family Medicine became a natural choice. I was residency trained at Riverside Regional Medical Center in Newport News, Virginia. There I was trained to be a full-scale family doctor and was given extensive hospital and clinic experience. I saw patients in the nursing home and in the Intensive Care Units. I am required to take examinations every few years to keep my credentials. Unlike a "GP" or "Internist," I have been trained to take care of all patients ("Newborns through Nursing Homes.")
I personally believe in preventing disease. I will be doing most screening procedures right in our office including Colon Cancer, Prostate Cancer, Cervical/Ovarian Cancer, Diabetes, Heart Disease, Cholesterol and many others. I believe in a healthy mind and body. I treat the person not just the illness. I will work with you in the office to keep you healthy, and if needed, I’ll be there for you in the hospital.
