Specializing in Caring for you.
Over my career I have had the fortune of working to help others in many capacities. As the medical director of the Mobile Crisis Outreach Team, I had the rare experience of evaluating individuals in their own home and mitigating crisis. As an emergency psychiatric provider, I have worked with patients in their most challenging moments. As a program director of an inpatient psychiatric hospital, I was able to manage a patient from crisis to stabilization.
Specialing in caring for you means I will harness every ounce of knowledge and experience to focus on each individual patient, with an understanding of how to meet each patient's unique challenge.
