EDUCATIONAL & PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
EDUCATIONAL
I received a B.A. in psychology (with dept. honors) from Northwestern University in 1996. I graduated from the University of Iowa College of Medicine in 2000. I completed a 4-year psychiatric residency at the University of California-San Diego in 2004. I am a certified diplomate of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology.
PROFESSIONAL
From 2003-2004, I managed the psychiatric consultation-liaison service at Thornton Hospital in La Jolla. Between 2002-2004, I was a sub-investigator in dozens of psychiatric clinical trials at a local clinical trials company. From 2006-2009, I was a psychiatric consultant to a recovery center in Pacific Beach. In that capacity, I provided psychiatric guidance and medication recommendations to several patients whose recovery was later profiled on the nationally broadcast television show A&E Intervention. In addition to my private practice, I work as an attending staff psychiatrist at Sharp Grossmont and Sharp Mesa Vista Hospitals. I am the supervising psychiatrist for the Royal Home in El Cajon. I am a Consulting Psychiatrist in the National Football League Program for Substances of Abuse. I help conduct psychiatric clinical trials part-time at Affiliated Research Institute.
I am a member of the American Psychiatric Association, the American Medical Association, the California Medical Association and the San Diego Psychiatric Society. I am licensed to prescribe Suboxone.

INFORMATION ABOUT MY PRACTICE
MY APPROACH TO PATIENT CARE
I strive to be a caring and compassionate psychiatrist who will listen to your story attentively and help you feel at ease. After collecting your initial history, I will provide you with a diagnostic understanding of your situation--taking into account both biological and environmental contributing factors. Specific treatment recommendations will provide you with a plan to improve your quality of life. When there are multiple effective treatment options available, I try to let patients participate in the decision-making process by educating them about acceptable available choices. My overall goal is to help you feel better as soon as possible.
