I have worked as a general internist at the DH-Lyme clinic for the past 18 years. I have an active primary care practice and precept both Geisel students and primary care internal residents. I have a special interest in geriatrics and currently have a small amount of funding through the Geriatric Center of Excellence at Dartmouth. I have enjoyed being a facilitator for OnDoctoring for 10 years.
Some of my personal interests are being outside with my family and friends particularly hiking, cross country skiing and paddle boarding. I also especially like swimming in the crystal clear lakes of the North East Kingdom of Vermont. I try to find time for reading, gardening and puzzles, but I haven't been succeeding with that!
