Accepting New Patients

Yes, this doctor is accepting new patients

Biography

“As a medical student trying to decide which branch of medicine to pursue, I was exposed to ENT and immediately knew my future. For me, this specialty has the perfect combination of clinic time and operating room time. In the clinic, I get to know my patients and provide relief for many of them. Some patients require procedures in the operating room, and I find it so rewarding to help patients this way. The lifestyle of an ENT doctor isn’t overly stressful, so I have plenty of time to spend with my family and be involved in our community. “I especially enjoy working in the Midwest, where I grew up. Being in healthcare, I get to make new connections with people every day. My goal is to always educate patients as much as possible. I want patients to know their diagnosis and different treatment options so they feel confident making informed decisions about their healthcare. I am blessed to have received excellent training and to be surrounded by great partners, too.”
