I have tried to list the areas that I 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 to go immediately to the ER or call 911 if a severe emergency or condition is present.

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

Injury: Many injuries can be seen initially and treated or stabilized, 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.
Allergy & Asthma: I have an extensive practical experience with both of these areas. Most of the time an easy solution is available that I can help you with.
Skin & Acne: Both of these areas are common, there are natural solutions, teaching and sometimes medications that can make a difference in treating.
Sports Medicine: I have a special interest in taking care of athletes, I have seen many different injuries over the years and have kept up with the general treatment and rehabilitation needed to stay active.
Minor Surgery: I am equipped for all kinds of mole, 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 easily be applied. Many individuals are confused about the how to approach there basic health needs. Let me get you started on this path. I can also help with information or education about many areas of health.
Diabetes & Hypertension: These are two areas that every physician should have an interest in managing. Diagnosing early and managing appropriately are essential. I can start you off on the right track and help you to manage these conditions.
Minor Surgery: I am equipped for all kinds of mole, cyst removal and skin cancer care. Ingrown toenails are also included. My costs will almost always be significantly less*.

*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 is going to be reduced. This penalizes the person who is paying cash, has a high deductible or Medical Saving Account. You end up paying this higher cost. My goal is to try and provide services at a reasonable cost and pass the savings along to patients.
