About Me

I specialize in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes and often prescribe insulin pumps and glucose sensors. I also specialize in thyroid disorders and perform a lot of thyroid biopsies. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and two daughters, jogging, and hiking with my family and our dogs. I am also a Notre Dame Football fan and watch games whenever possible in the fall.

Ratings and Reviews

The ratings and reviews are based on patient responses to the overall provider rating question from the survey. The question reads: “Using any number from 0 to 10, where 0 is the worst provider possible and 10 is the best provider possible, what number would you use to rate this provider?” Responses are converted to a 5-point rating system and applied consistently to all providers. Learn more about our survey process. Patients who see some types of providers receive a different version of the patient satisfaction survey. Those results are not available on DukeHealth.org.
