His enthusiasm for healthcare and his focus on each patient as an individual has been rewarded by numerous recognitions as one of America's premier family physicians.  Disease prevention is the primary goal of his work.  He has expertise in diabetes, cholesterol management, and osteoporosis, however, caring for children is his greatest joy.
