My Biography

Walnut Creek Medical Center takes a holistic, comprehensive approach to health care. Our integrated care model means that patients enjoy a variety of benefits without having to reach beyond our system. Patients may fill their prescriptions on-site, at a number of different pharmacies, as well as complete any required laboratory work. If they receive a referral, patients can see that specialist on our Geary or French campuses. The French campus has its own pharmacy, too.

In the Presurgery department, I serve in a multifaceted role as both a nurse practitioner and a first assistant in surgery. Areas of special interest to me include anesthesiology and surgery. I attend a number of professional conferences in my field, including the California Association for Nurse Practitioners, Association of Perioperative Registered Nurses, and Kaiser Permanente’s own primary care conferences.

During my leisure time, I enjoy hiking, exercising, and following healthy eating habits. I look forward to working with you at Kaiser Permanente, and I am committed to ensuring that your visit experience is a positive one.

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.
