Accepting new patients

No ratings to display.

Why aren't there any ratings?

There is no publicly available rating for this care provider for one of three reasons:

  1. They do not see patients.
  2. They see patients but have not yet received the minimum number of patient experience reviews. To be eligible for display, we require a minimum of 30 surveys. This ensures that the rating is statistically reliable and an accurate reflection of patient experience.
  3. They see patients but do not see enough patients to collect a statistically-reliable patient experience rating.

About me

I am a neurologist who specializes in epilepsy. I care for people with epilepsy by helping manage medications, doing pre-surgery evaluations and offering resources to improve quality of life.

I have lived in many parts of the country during my training. This has helped me understand the needs of different communities and learn from experts at several excellent places.

My interests include health inequities, challenges that affect people with epilepsy and their families, epilepsy surgery, women with epilepsy, gender-affirming care for people in the LGBTQ+ community, teaching medical trainees, mentoring and creating programs with local communities to teach the public and healthcare providers about epilepsy.

I work with each patient to find the treatments that fit them best. I know every patient is unique and needs a plan that is right for them. My goal is to help guide patients on their journey with epilepsy so they can live their best lives.

In my free time, I enjoy hiking with my husband and dogs, scrapbooking, kayaking and trying not to kill my houseplants.

Insurance

Before scheduling an appointment

  1. Check your network. If you have health insurance,  call your company to find out if the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is part of your network.
  2. Ask what you will pay. Your insurance company can tell you what your costs are likely to be.

If you schedule an appointment and your health insurance does not include OHSU Health, you may have to pay more than if you go to a provider in your insurance network.
