It has been a great privilege to provide comprehensive medical care as a family medicine physician in Austin, Texas, for more than 15 years. Patients continue to travel from all areas of Austin as well as other areas of Texas based on the trust we have fostered over the years. In my MDVIP-affiliated practice, I aim to provide even more comprehensive and personalized health care.  

I grew up in a small border town in South Texas with my sister and two brothers and where my parents still reside – and with whom I am lucky to remain very close. After medical school, I trained with the U.S. Army and was fortunate enough to serve as a medical officer during Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation New Dawn for our troops of the 4th Infantry Division and as medical director for our local troops in Fort Hood of the 1st Calvary Division. Following my honorable discharge from the U.S. Army, I settled in Austin with my wife and daughter, where we enjoy the outdoor activities Austin has to offer, including hiking, swimming, enjoying the lakes and mountain biking. My passion is to enjoy all that life has to offer and share my learnings with my patients so they, too, can pursue living happier and healthier lives through better wellness.  

I have seen medicine change in the last two decades, and I believe the bond between patient and physicians may be becoming more and more strained. I think it may be to the point where it becomes difficult for traditional practices to personalize care or prioritize the patient’s needs. That’s why I feel strongly about the MDVIP model. I have more time to spend talking with patients. My goal is to deliver more individualized healthcare tailored to your individual goals and to create a bond of trust, comfort and peace of mind about your doctor.  

I believe health and happiness go hand-in-hand with overall wellness. That is why I believe it is important to consider having a private primary care physician by your side.

My practice is conveniently located in Southwest Austin and less than 10 minutes from downtown. As a native Texan, I also speak fluent Spanish. I look forward to meeting you!
