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 pediatric gastroenterology doctor who treats children with all digestive system conditions. I have a special interest in eosinophilic esophagitis and other eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases. I am also interested in inflammatory bowel disease and effectively transitioning patients with chronic gastrointestinal conditions from pediatric to adult care.

I aim to approach the patient as a whole, within the context of their family, schooling, activities and other interests. I enjoy working with patients and their families in shared decision-making to help achieve the best outcomes for the patient.

Outside work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and two daughters, cooking, traveling, hiking and skiing.

Insurance

Before scheduling your appointment, we recommend you contact your insurance company to verify that the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is included in your network. Your insurance company will also be able to inform you of any copayments, co–insurance, or deductibles that will be your responsibility. If you proceed in scheduling an appointment and your health insurance benefits do not participate with OHSU providers, your out of pocket liability may be higher.
