About
Bio
I obtained my undergraduate degree from Texas Tech. My medical school training was in San Antonio at the University of Texas HSC. I then completed my General Surgical residency at Parkland Hospital and the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center Dallas. I was in private practice for several years before joining Scott and White Healthcare in Round Rock, Texas. My surgical practice centers primarily around the treatment of breast and thyroid disease including benign and malignant conditions.
