From the doctor

I was born and raised in Jacksonville. It’s where I met my wife and where we are raising our four children. Our favorite thing to do as a family is to attend Jacksonville Jaguars games. One of my other hobbies is lacrosse, a sport I have enjoyed coaching in the past and hope to again.

My views on patient care have been shaped by the care I received as a child from my local pediatrician. My father always told me that the key to being a good doctor, is being “a humanist,” and the belief in the ever-evolving evidence in medicine.

Another core principle of mine is to blend the science of medicine with the art of healing, so the youngest of patients can realize their highest potential.
