Accepting new patients

No ratings to display.

Why aren't there any ratings?

There is no publicly available rating for this care provider for one of three reasons:

  1. They do not see patients.
  2. They see patients but have not yet received the minimum number of patient experience reviews. To be eligible for display, we require a minimum of 30 surveys. This ensures that the rating is statistically reliable and an accurate reflection of patient experience.
  3. They see patients but do not see enough patients to collect a statistically-reliable patient experience rating.

About me

I am a surgical oncology physician associate who cares for adults with colorectal liver metastases and peritoneal metastases from various primary tumors.

Some of the treatments I see patients for include Hepatic Arterial Infusion (HAI) and CRS-HIPEC chemotherapies.

I strive to offer patient-centered and compassionate care for our patients as they traverse a complex surgical and health care journey.

Born and raised in the PNW, I'm excited to join the Surgical Oncology team at OHSU. As a research assistant at OHSU, I gained a passion for cancer care and cancer patients before attending physician associate school. There, I found a deep interest in the world of surgery and surgical care. This role is a natural combination of my two clinical interests. Serving cancer patients is an honor I feel privileged to have.

Outside work, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, getting outside as much as possible, golfing, running and cheering on the Ducks.

Insurance

Before scheduling your appointment, we recommend you contact your insurance company to verify that the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is included in your network. Your insurance company will also be able to inform you of any copayments, co–insurance, or deductibles that will be your responsibility. If you proceed in scheduling an appointment and your health insurance benefits do not participate with OHSU providers, your out of pocket liability may be higher. Visit the billing and insurance section of our site for more information.
