Narrative Biography
About Me
I was born in Alberta, Canada, and went to medical school at the University of Alberta Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry. I completed my residency in emergency medicine at the School of Medicine at Queen’s University in Ontario. My wife inspired me to pursue a career in emergency medicine. She’s always been a strong pillar of support and understanding, reinforcing my enthusiasm for and love of medicine.

About My Practice
In the emergency department, there’s a constant parade of different medical conditions presenting themselves, exciting people to work with and meet, and unexpected events to attend to urgently. I look forward every day to new challenges.
I keep up-to-date in emergency medicine and in the medical field by reading professional journals, attending medical conferences, and participating in continuing medical education programs. I take every opportunity to learn from the experiences of my colleagues.
Pacific Permanente Group provides its clinicians and our patients with a coordinated, integrated model of health care delivery. I think it’s the physician’s job to be 100 percent invested in the patient’s medical concerns, especially in moments of crisis, when patients are worried or have difficulty communicating. I also believe in treating every patient like they’re family.
How I Thrive
To stay healthy, I make sure that I get regular sleep and eat well. To unwind away from work, I enjoy barbecuing with family and friends and woodworking in my garage.
