Internal Medicine &
Pediatrics
I don't believe writing a prescription fixes every problem; I believe in discussing options with my patients using the best information available.

About Me
When I was in high school I got the opportunity to scrub in and observe open heart surgery. Seeing a man's heart beat in his chest left me in awe of the design of the human body. I chose my specialty because I could not choose. I love working with kids and I love working with seniors so I do both.
I was born and raised in north Dallas and my parents and brothers still live and work in the metroplex.
One of my biggest hobbies is podasting. I do two internet radio shows both available on I-tunes. In Family Movie Night my family reviews the movies we watch together. Pop-medicine is a podcast where I discuss medical news and what it really means.
I live in Keller, am married and have two daughters and a dog.

In selecting a personal doctor, have you considered a physician who specializes in ADULT healthcare?
Doctors of Internal Medicine are trained in the prevention and treatment of adult diseases. They can serve your medical needs throughout your life, from as early as the teens (age 16) through the "senior" years.
Our doctors of Internal Medicine focus on prevention and early detection of catastrophic illnesses. They can provide screening and treatment of cholesterol disorders, heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, osteoporosis, thyroid disorders and cancer.
Annual health exams and routine sick visits can be handled by our internists, with many clinics offering same-day appointments when you are ill.

What is Internal Medicine & Pediatrics?
Internal Medicine and Pediatrics (Med-Peds) physicians are a combination of an Internist and a Pediatrician in one single physician. Their training allows them to take care of patients throughout their lifetime – from birth through the "senior" years.
To learn more about Internal Medicine, please visit the American Board of Internal Medicine at http://www.abim.org/.
To learn more about Pediatrics, please visit the American Board of Pediatrics at http://www.abp.org/.
Our excellent staff of pediatricians will take care of your children from birth through age 18.
It's never too early to teach your children about the importance of monitoring their health. An Annual Health Exam is the best way to learn about your child's development, to check whether their immunizations are up to date, and to detect potential health problems.
