Welcome
“Seeing the smiles on people’s faces after having had cataract or laser eye surgery has been the greatest reward for me. As a result, I will continue to strive for perfection and offer my patients the latest and safest technology in eye care.”
My Background
After finishing my residency training, I immediately joined Kaiser Permanente in 1989. Though my training is in comprehensive ophthalmology, I have expertise in cataract and refractive surgery. Until 1997, I practiced in the Martinez and Antioch Kaiser facilities. During my tenure there, I served as chief of the Eye Services Department and president of the Kaiser Permanente Ophthalmology Society. In order to be closer to my family, I transferred to the South Sacramento facility.
As a comprehensive Ophthalmologist, my top priority is preserving vision. I look forward to helping you maintain healthy eyes throughout your life.
About Me
I am married and have one daughter. My husband, who is also an Ophthalmologist, has a practice in Sacramento. In my free time I enjoy running, skiing, and water sports. On weekends, I referee soccer games and teach Sunday school.

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.
