About me

Philosophy of care

I enjoy my career as a physician. I feel privileged to be able to establish relationships with my patients and I truly do learn from my patients. I believe my role as a physician is, to the best of my knowledge, to provide my patients with health information that will empower them to take an active positive role in their health. I try to encourage lifestyle changes including exercise, a healthy diet and holistic activities, and stress the importance of medicine when necessary.

I support the American Academy of Family Medicine Practitioners (AAFMP) and the California Dept of Public Health's (CDPH) guidelines and schedules on vaccinations to protect your child's and the community's health.

Personal interests

Outside of Medicine, Dr. Ward enjoys running, kick boxing, family, sports, camping, fishing and horseback riding.
