Board Certified: American Board of Pediatrics

A physician specializing in Pediatrics is concerned with the physical, emotional, and social health of children from birth to young adulthood. Care encompasses a broad spectrum of health services ranging from preventive healthcare to the diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic diseases. The Pediatrician deals with biological, social and environmental influences on the developing child, and with the impact of disease and dysfunction on development.

From the doctor

Through early intervention, a pediatrician can promote good health throughout life. I work with parents to achieve this goal. One of my traits is that I am a good listener. I know that as a parent, you are my best resource in helping your child stay healthy. My goal is to partner with parents and their families.

I served in the US Navy as a Pediatrician. After transferring to Jacksonville on my final tour, my wife and I decided to make Jacksonville our home. Being Georgia natives, we are close to our families. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, fishing, and going to the beach.
