About
Bio
I have been a board certified family physician since 1987. Santa Maria, California is my home town and I attended Universities of California, Davis for undergrad and the University of California, San Diego for medical school. My family practice residency at the University of Missouri, Columbia led me to open a private practice in Jefferson City, Missouri. I enjoy interacting with patients from newborns to nonagenarians.
My non-medical interests include scuba diving, underwater videography (willflix.com), rock and ice climbing, and kayaking. These activities are best enjoyed with grandchildren, of which my wife and I have thirteen (so far!).
