An important part of being your physician is understanding who you are. That also means understanding how valuable your time is. My colleagues and I have developed My Doctor Online so you can e-mail me, check your lab results, make an appointment, access our many online programs or get information about a particular health topic – any time it’s convenient for you.

Family and Friends
My husband and I have no children but we have raised a succession of wonderful dogs. My husband is a horticulturist. He loves trees, plants and now he is entering ultracycling events. His longest distance cycling was 750 miles over 3 ½ days.
Hobbies and Interests
While I am not practicing family medicine, I might be out bicycling, walking my dogs, dancing, knitting, or just reading books. I try to eat well and sleep enough.
