Care Philosophy
I view the patient-provider relationship as one of the most meaningful connections in medicine, and I feel privileged to be a part of it. This relationship should be grounded in mutual trust, respect and loyalty. My approach centers on compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to each patient’s unique needs.
I chose Gundersen for its dedication to excellence in patient care and its commitment to fostering professional growth. I value a multidimensional approach to medicine—one that places patient care at the forefront while also prioritizing education and research to advance treatment options for patients with rheumatologic conditions.
Personal Statement
I am a nature enthusiast who enjoys exploring trails and spending time outdoors with my family.

I asked the doctor what the results were on my blood and he just answered. You need to get to Lab and get some more blood drawn for more test

MyChart if you don't use it often it won't let you in. I think you should be able to accesses it anytime you need it. Not when it lets you. Because now I have to reset my password and that doesn't set well with me. I already have a notebook full of passwords and I don't like it if I have to keep changing it . I'm getting old and sometimes my memory is not good

The doctor needs to listen to the patient and actually go through their medical chart instead of making assumptions and then making sure that the patient understands everything that he's saying before they leave. Thank you.
