Why I am a Kaiser Permanente Physician?
The vision of this health care organization and the ongoing commitment to providing excellent care makes this a great place to practice medicine. I have been with Kaiser for more than 20 years and have had the opportunity to offer medical care to members, conduct research, provide teaching and training, and develop new programs. At this time, my clinic hours vary and I am providing urgent care services.
My current program and administrative work is leading our Family Violence Prevention Program in Northern California and for all of our Kaiser Permanente regions. I am proud of Kaiser's commitment to this complex, and important issue. To find out more about this program, watch the video and read stories of courage, survival and hope, go kp.org/domesticviolence. You can also find this under Quick Links at the right side of this page.
I enjoy gardening, tending my compost bin, shopping at the Farmer's Market, reading, music, the outdoors and most of all, my husband Bill and two almost grown children, Lauren and Devin.
