Why I enjoy family medicine/residency: I am a general internist who brings experience in managed care and health care administration to my background in clinical practice. I have been involved in establishing managed care networks and in setting up an HMO in the Central Valley of California. I have also established a five-physician group practice. My current administrative responsibilities include serving as Chief Medical Officer for Adventist Health Central Valley Network and a Medical Director for the Adventist Health system of 20 rural health clinics. I have a special interest in the application of evidence-based medical research to the daily decision-making process in clinical practice and in prevention and treatment of infections.

Why I enjoy family medicine/residency: The most interesting aspect of this specialty is that you can treat your patient as a whole person and develop a good rapport not only with the patient, but with the family.
Being part of the faculty team of this program is a positive challenge that keeps me updated. There is nothing better than seeing a resident reaching goals and knowing that you are part of his or her success.
