From the doctor

The first person I met in medical school was my future wife. After marrying in Virginia, we completed our residency together in Jacksonville, and we've worked for Baptist Primary Care since 2003.

In addition to serving my patients daily in the office, I research treatments for diabetes, obesity, heart disease, high cholesterol and high blood pressure. I also encourage early and aggressive screenings for these conditions as well as for breast, colon, cervical and prostate cancers.

At home, I enjoy spending time with my wife and our two daughters. I'm an avid cyclist, and I belong to the Baptist Flyers cycling team, which supports rides for multiple sclerosis, diabetes and autism.
