Obstetrics & Gynecology, Urogynecology
Most memorable patient moment:
A patient came to me after after having had 4 consecutive miscarriages. I diagnosed her with a clotting disorder. She became pregnant and with special treatment carried to term. Tragically, she lost the baby within days of her due date and had a still birth. About a year later she had a successful pregnancy and delivered her son. The emotions in the delivery room were overwhelming not only for them, but also for me. I still recall having tears well in my eyes as I placed her child on her abdomen. She now has three beautiful , healthy children.
One thing I can't live without:
My wife Elizabeth’s gourmet cooking. The reason I spend so much time on the treadmill!
One thing people are surprised to learn about me:
I like to restore and refinish furniture.
