I have tried to list the areas that my clinic may be able to serve you; training for Family Practice and the Emergency Room is very broad and almost every area is covered. Just remember, go to the ER or call 911 immediately if a severe emergency or condition is present.

Illness: Infections: sinus, colds, bronchitis, pneumonia, food poisoning or gastritis, bladder infections or kidney stones, boils, and skin infections. I think you get the idea, almost any infection can be seen immediately. Consultation with a specialist or a referral for admission is available.

Injury: Many injuries can be initially treated and/or stabilized at our clinic, therefore avoiding the expense of going to the ER. X-rays are easily obtained when needed. I will review the X-ray and consult with the radiologist about the findings.
Allergies & Asthma: I have extensive practical experience with both of these areas. Most of the time an easy solution is available.
Skin & Acne: Both of these areas are common, there are natural solutions, basic instructions, and sometimes medications that can make a difference.
Sports Medicine: I have a special interest in athletics. I have seen many types of injuries over the years and have kept up with the general treatment and rehabilitation needed to stay active and feel your best.
Minor Surgery: I am equipped for all kinds of mole and cyst removal and skin cancer care. Ingrown toenails are also included. My costs will almost always be significantly less*.
Prevention: There are basic, practical areas of medicine that can be easily implemented. Many individuals are confused when approaching their basic health needs. I can offer information and education on many areas of health.
Diabetes & Hypertension: These are two areas that every physician should have an interest in managing. Early diagnosis and proper management are essential. I can start you on the right path and help you stay there.
Minor Surgery: I am equipped for all kinds of mole and cyst removal and skin cancer care. Ingrown toenails are also included. My costs will almost always be significantly less than other practices*.

*Cost: Most Doctors have a fee schedule that they are required to follow for Medicare and insurance companies. They charge the maximum they can because their reimbursement will be reduced. This penalizes the person who is paying cash, has a high health deductible, or Health Savings Account. You end up paying the higher cost. My goal is to provide services at a reasonable cost and pass the savings along to patients.
