About me
I am a physician associate who cares for patients undergoing treatment for various types of gastrointestinal cancers, or, cancer of the digestive tract and related organs. These can include stomach cancer, pancreatic cancer and colon cancer.
Some of the treatments I offer include:
- Chemotherapy
- Immunotherapy
- Management of treatment-related side effects
- Cancer-related complications throughout treatment
A cancer diagnosis has the potential to impact many aspects of life before, during and after treatment. My focus is to help patients navigate various chemotherapy and immunotherapy-related side effects by providing evidence-based and patient-centered care. Because digestive cancers often impact nutrition status, I also hope to utilize expertise from my background as a cancer dietitian to help patients feel their best before, during and after treatment.
Outside work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and our Bernese Mountain dog, Gus. I also cook, explore thrift stores around Portland, play cribbage, run marathons and hike/trail run.

Insurance
Before scheduling an appointment
- 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.
- 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.
