My Biography
I became interested in rheumatology while doing my general internal medicine training. The field attracted me because it is a specialty that requires intuition and gentleness. Over the years, I have enjoyed the personal interactions with the individuals who come to see me. Moving to Kaiser Permanente San Francisco in mid-career from private practice has been also very rewarding because of the emphasis here on working together.
The explosion in medical knowledge and related technology has been very beneficial to my patients. Being able to experience and use this new knowledge and technology has been emotionally and intellectually rewarding to me.
I love watching foreign movies, playing tennis and exploring the Bay area with my free time.
Undergraduate Education: BA in Biology, Bucknell University

If you think you have a MEDICAL OR PSYCHIATRIC EMERGENCY, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY or go to the nearest hospital. DO NOT attempt to access emergency care through this web site. An emergency medical condition is a medical or psychiatric condition that manifests itself by acute symptoms of sufficient severity (including severe pain) such that you could reasonably expect the absence of immediate medical attention to result in any of the following: serious jeopardy to your health, serious impairment to your bodily functions, or serious dysfunction of any bodily organ or part. An emergency medical condition is also "active labor," which means a labor when there is inadequate time for safe transfer to a Plan hospital (or designated hospital) before delivery or if a transfer poses a threat to the health of the member or unborn child.
