### Approach to care

I approach each patient as an individual and develop a path forward with my patients together. I believe listening to a patient's concerns is the best way to achieve a common goal. I enjoy working collaboratively with other specialties to have the best outcome for our patients.

### Professional highlights

Fellow American College of Surgeons. Northern California Chapter American College of Surgeons.

### Outside of medicine

Outside of Medicine, I enjoy spending time with my wife and twin daughters. I like to stay active and I participate in many outdoor activities, including exercising, hiking, biking, and when time allows a round of golf.
