About me

I'm a family medicine doctor who cares for people of all ages and life stages, including children. Patients can see me for:

I also offer in-office procedures including:

  • Birth control, such as IUDs and the Nexplanon implant
  • Endometrial biopsy, a test of the lining of the uterus
  • Colposcopy, a close exam of the cervix
  • Joint injections
  • Skin biopsies

My goal is to build a relationship with my patients that supports their priorities, whether that means preventive care, managing chronic conditions or improving overall wellness. I also have a strong interest in health policy and how institutions, political systems and policy shape our environments and our health.

I grew up in upstate New York and South Florida. I've lived in Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Miami and Vermont for work, school and medical training. I'm happy to be living and working in Oregon as part of the East Portland Community Health Center team.

Outside of work, I enjoy cooking, traveling, spending time with friends and family, reading and exploring bookstores.

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. 

Visit our billing and insurance page for more information.

  1. I'm very happy with the care I receive!

  2. Clinician was very positive and took her time and looked at me and not the computer. Met me where I am, only treated what I wanted done. I felt my health care was more of a team process that we are working together and she scheduled a follow up! (But only if I wanted it) Just an excellent experience overall with limited waiting.

  3. This was the best doctor appointment experience I have ever had.

  4. Personable, great listener
