``I always wanted to go into medicine, but I was never really sure which field I would pursue. During the summer between my junior and senior years of college, I called Pediatrics Northwest and asked if I could work in the office to get some experience. That was it, I was hooked. A major bonus of being a pediatrician is providing care over a continuous period of 20 years or so with one patient. My philosophy of care is to treat each and every patient as if they were my own. After each visit I ask myself if I would be satisfied as a parent with the care that I provided for the child. I am always open to a healthy discussion about a treatment plan and appreciate parental input. We all have the same goal in the end, and that is to raise a healthy, well-rounded child.``
