Welcome to My Home Page !

My practice experience outside Kaiser Permanente includes general surgery and plastic surgery residencies in the U.S. Army, three years at the plastic surgery service at William Beaumont Army Medical Center (Fort Bliss, TX), and four years in private practice (Tulsa, OK). I joined Kaiser Permanente in July 2003. I am a proud member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.

I am happily married with two perfect sons. My interests include my family, medicine and surgery, gardening, and horses.

Practice Philosophy

After ten years in the Army, I truly enjoy a team approach to health care, but not the constant obligation of deployment. Practicing plastic and reconstructive surgery with the patients’ best interests as a foundation, has been my philosophy. Practicing out of a major trauma center in Oklahoma provided a service to my community and a wealth of experience in all realms of plastic surgery. Practicing with skill and caring has created a successful practice with happy patients. Patient education and participation in the process is a cornerstone of success.

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.
