About Me

I really am a less-is-more, kind of doctor. I tend not to prescribe medications unless it’s absolutely necessary. There’s a need out there to embrace vitamins, exercise, lifestyle changes, low-tech, non-pharmacological, non-medicine therapies into the treatment. Those things are important in keeping people healthy, as well.
