I am a board-certified Family Medicine Physician who has provided primary care services to Georgia’s Southeast DeKalb County area for almost 8 years. My primary area of interest is chronic disease–specifically high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and diabetes–prevention and management. I help patients and their families break the generational cycle of complications due to the aforementioned conditions through public speaking and community education.
three topics offocus:
number
one
The Vascular Triad: hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and type 2 diabetes (prevention and management).
number
two
Primary care (including women’s health).
number
three
The health benefits of outdoor activities.
What makes me stand out:
When I encourage my patients to engage in physical activity, I recommend that they include at least one outdoor activity–be it walking around their neighborhood, hiking, bike riding…any type of outdoor sport to get them in tune with nature. I am my most rejuvenated and have the most mental clarity when I am outdoors.

SoMeDocs builds profiles for doctors who create, push past boundaries, and aim to innovate. It’s always fascinating to see what our doctors are up to. Each profile is unique and pieced together by hand, so when you share, it supports both the doctor featured, and SoMeDocs. So thanks.
