About
Philosophy of care
My daily focus is to listen to patients’ health concerns and to address each individual’s desires and needs. I will always work to help my patients find a solution whether that means medical treatment, surgery, or referral to a sub-specialist. Patients come to OB-GYN physicians for many different reasons: to ensure a healthy pregnancy, for preventative health care, for contraception, help with menopause, infertility, or with problems such as pain or unwanted bleeding. This is the variety of care that makes our profession so interesting and satisfying.
Personal interests
I keep busy outside of the office raising three wonderful kids with my husband on our small farm in Kutztown. My garden is my place for reflection and rejuvenation.
