About me

Northern New Hampshire and Vermont is an area underserved by doctors. Being able to provide care in this region is an important part of my job. Heart disease is a common ailment, but advances in recent years have helped more patients recover.

As a cardiologist, I provide diagnostic and treatment options for a wide range of heart and vascular issues. I work with patients and their families to help them understand their condition and care options. I listen to their concerns and help them find the best treatment for them.

For me, a successful outcome means a patient's quality of life improves. The most rewarding part of my job is having long-term relationships with patients and their families.
