About me

I am a physician associate at the OHSU Spine Center. I provide comprehensive support beginning with your initial visit and continuing throughout your entire surgical journey. 

By working closely with our spine surgeons, I help coordinate your care before, during and after surgery. This team-based approach allows me to understand your complete story and support you in achieving the best possible outcome.  

I am committed to educating patients in a clear, straightforward manner. I explain your condition, treatment options and care instructions in language that is easy to understand. I take your concerns seriously, listen carefully to what matters most to you and work alongside you, even when parts of the treatment process feel challenging. My goal is to ensure you feel informed, supported and confident throughout your recovery.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with friends and family, cheering on the Trailblazers, hiking, cross-country skiing and attending live musical performances.

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.
