About Me

I grew up in Florida and went to school at the University of Florida (Go Gators!). I moved to Denver to complete my residency training in general surgery at the University of Colorado. During this time I met my husband, who is an internal medicine physician, and we set up a home here in Colorado. I have 2 fabulous daughters and a little dog who all bring me great joy. I was honored to be recognized as a 5280 Magazine Top Doctor in 2020.

About my practice

After practicing at the Franklin Medical Offices for 13 years, I moved my practice to the Lone Tree Medical Offices and Sky Ridge Medical Center. I enjoy treating surgical diseases and appreciate the variety of conditions. I especially like taking care of problems in the endocrine systems (breast, thyroid, parathyroid and adrenal). I appreciate the responsibility and ability to take care of a wide range of people, working with my integrated team in the General Surgery department. It is also fantastic to be able to work with specialists in other departments, particularly since we are in the same building. I have secured access to your medical records, including tests, X-rays and treatment plans, so I can better assist you where you need me (in the medical office, hospital, or at home).

How I thrive

Most of my free time is spent doing things with my family and friends. People keep me active and grounded. Denver is such a great city with so much to do and the mountains are close by. It's wonderful to enjoy a great meal, take a train to ski, hike in a new place all summer, or just stay in town for football or baseball. It's an easy place to travel to and from, another activity my family all agrees on.
