Both my wife and I grew up in Coeur d’Alene and have strong connections to the
community. I went to high school at Lake City before attending Gonzaga University
for undergrad, and then the University of Washington for medical school. I was also
lucky to spend time during my training in both Hawaii and the Bay Area. We now
have three children and are happy to be back in Coeur d’Alene around friends and
relatives to raise our family.

I felt a draw to orthopedics specifically because I played sports my entire life and re-
ally liked that with orthopedics I had the ability to help people become active again.

People can expect a warm reception from my staff. We try to respect everyone’s time
and stay on schedule as much as possible. I hope everyone can leave their visit with
a clear direction as to what our plan is to make them feel better.

My hobbies have changed over time and now mostly revolve around living vicariously
through my children. However, I enjoy remaining active through running, skiing and
soccer, and I have recently transitioned from being a player to now a coach for my
children.

I was drawn to Kootenai from my private practice because I felt like it shares my
desire to serve and give back to the community where I grew up—allowing me to
continue to see and treat all people as a member of Kootenai’s comprehensive health
care team.
