What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider?
Being a healthcare provider is a special role that I take pride in. By patients putting their trust in me, and building relationships, we can work together to achieve a heathy lifestyle, mentally and physically. With many years of experience in primary care and urgent care, I have enjoyed working with patients to help them to attain their goals.
In your opinion, what should be the role of a primary care provider for a patient, taking into account both physical health and behavioral health needs?
The role of a primary care provider for a patient is one of a partnership and shared decision making. My education and experience are joined with the patients health and life experiences to form goals for their health. Through this partnership, I am able to understand where the patient is coming from physically, mentally and emotionally and use this to better help treat the patient in an individual manner.
Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time?
When I’m not caring for patients, you can find me traveling or spending time outdoors. My hobbies are finding a good book to read as well as shooting photography. I enjoy spending time with family and my 3 dogs. Any chance I get, I head into the city to watch a Chicago Cubs or Blackhawks game. I value exercise to keep my mind and body healthy, in particular, Beachbody workout programs.
