Her goal is to provide the highest quality medical care and service, emphasizing a proactive, comprehensive approach to both disease prevention and wellness.

“As a member of my concierge medicine practice, you’ll receive truly patient-focused and personalized healthcare.

She received her Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree from Vanderbilt University in 1990, post-baccalaureate degree in pre-medicine from Columbia University in 1994, and medical degree from St. George’s University School of Medicine in 1998. This was followed by an internship at Hahnemann University Hospital in 1999 and a residency at Stamford Hospital in 2000, where she served as chief medical resident during her final year.
