I have lived and practiced medicine in this community for my entire 25-year career.  I am an MDVIP-affiliated physician who offers personalized, attentive care and has worked and sacrificed to become a bedrock in the cities I serve, including Pompano Beach, Fort Lauderdale and Lighthouse Point, Florida, as well as the Coral Springs/Parkland area.

Over my career I have developed relationships with sub­ specialists, diagnostic centers and skilled nursing facilities, as well as  major hospital systems in our area. I take great pride in being a medical doctor and resource who can help address multiple complex medical conditions. These include common issues like high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, and lipid disorders - as well as more complex cases, such as musculoskeletal conditions and chronic pulmonary conditions, though this is not a comprehensive list of maladies I'm comfortable -reviewing with patients in my family medicine practice.

I believe in a holistic mind, body and spirit approach to primary care medicine where actively listening to my patients is of paramount importance. Eye contact and compassion are the norm in my office. I have always understood every patient is unique and has a unique set of needs. I support alternative or complementary medicine you use to help as you work to improve your quality of life.

I believe that medication is not always the answer, as I think lifestyle modification and psychological factors are often overlooked. You will not feel rushed with me or my staff.  Also, I utilize palpation skills, which I believe is a lost art form in this era of production-based corporate medicine.

My MDVIP-affiliated practice, often compared to a concierge medicine practice, offers conveniences like same- or next-day appointments with minimal waiting.
