Bio
Welcome to the Student Health Center! As the Medical Director I am privileged to oversee all aspects of our work in the Health Center including quality clinical care, outreach activities and population health measures. I am a Board Certified Family Physician with degrees and training from Brown University School of Medicine and the University of Rochester Medical Center. I recognize that students are members of multiple communities, including their families, and those communities are influences in the understanding and approach to health. Working in college health, I have the honor of meeting students at a time when they are exploring their identities and passions. Clinically I provide gender affirming care, sexual health services including long acting contraceptives, laceration repair and general primary care.
In my free time I enjoy reading and volunteer work with Rochester Youth Cycling (mountain biking) and the UR Well free clinic for medical care. I am happiest when I am outside enjoying the sun, rain or snow.
