a state college professor. I learned at an early age the value of commitment to
one's community and of service to others. After college, I served as Peace Corps
Volunteer in West Africa and my experience
there influenced my decision to pursue a career in medicine. I later served on
active duty in the US Navy, both overseas and in Virginia,
most recently caring for some of the active duty personnel returning from Afghanistan and Iraq.
I strongly believe in Harborview's mission to our community.
I am proud to work at a facility that promotes excellence in care to all
comers.
Furthermore, I believe that one of the biggest issues
today is people's feeling of disenfranchisement. Through open communication
patients become involved in their care and recovery. | | Clinic locations and days of week: | Harborview
