I have been with the Kaiser Vallejo Department of Anesthesiology since 1989. Prior to this I was in private practice in Clearwater, Florida. I became a physician after watching how fulfilling the profession was to my father, an excellent Orthopedic surgeon and role model. I was attracted to Anesthesiology by the acute interactions with patients from a pharmacologic, physiologic and personal perspective.

I enjoy my short commute from Benicia and like the collegial atmosphere among the operating room staff here at Kaiser Permanente.

At Kaiser Permanente Vallejo we employ a team approach to deliver a high quality anesthetic experience which decreases the inherent risks involved during anesthesia and improves your surgical outcome.

In my spare time I enjoy ocean sport fishing up and down the California coast as well as more distant locations.

Feel free to E-mail me with any anesthetic or fishing related questions!

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.
