I'm not your traditional family nurse practitioner. After months of training with neurosurgeons, physiatrists and physical therapists, I am a spine expert. I understand the spine from every perspective and your health is my priority. And because of the Spine Center's unique approach to care, I am able to spend as much time as needed with patients. I will get to know you individually and soon you will find that you have become part of our family here at the spine center.

During your initial visit to the Spine Center, I will do an extensive physical examination of you with careful consideration of your entire health history. Many of the questions I will have for you will concentrate on your spinal system. My goal is to get you the right care the first time, whether it be conservative care or surgery.

Every person has different needs and I evaluate those needs to help set up your individual treatment plan. I have lots of team members that I utilize in helping me with the treatment plan. I work directly with the PARS Neurosurgeons to study your health history and your physical findings to get you the right care at the right time, to rid you of pain, and help you return to your previous level of function.

Along with our team of specialists, I will quickly get you on the road to recovery and connect you to the right care, right away...welcome to our signature care approach!
