From the front lines of the ICU to the heart of family medicine—after 14 years in critical care, I made a life-altering decision. The pandemic opened my eyes to a deeper truth: prevention is the key to saving lives before they reach the brink. In a quiet hotel room on the Texas border, I chose a new path. Because while I may not change the whole world, I can change lives—one patient at a time.
Now, I’m excited to help you take control of your health. Together, we’ll focus on prevention, education, and whole-body wellness—because you deserve to feel your best every day. Let’s start this journey to a healthier you!
