Otolaryngologist
During medical school, I became fascinated with the anatomy with the head and neck, as well as complex surgical issues of head and neck reconstruction. I enjoyed connecting with patients and helping them recover during difficult times. Later through facial plastic surgery training, I was able to blend my previous background in art with my artistic judgement and technical dexterity.
I am a kind person who treats my patients well and finds time to relate to them. I am proud of my artistic judgment and ability to blend it with my strong technical skills to shape ideal outcomes for my patients.
My wonderful wife Katie is a physician assistant, manages our cosmetic practice and is a cosmetic injector. I have four daughters, and the best part of my day is getting to see my family every morning and evening. In my free time, I enjoy cooking and outdoor sports like running, skiing and hiking.
