Appointment Information
Eau Claire, WI
Luther Campus Clinic
1400 Bellinger St., Eau Claire, WI 54703Provider's Bio
I chose a career in internal medicine to make a positive impact on the well-being and productivity of our lives as we age. I believe strongly in evidence-based medicine and applying the cutting edge of research to meet your needs. I view my role as an educator, collaborator and a health advocate. I will give you the understanding of your medical condition so we can work together in tailoring your health plan.
I grew up in the proud blue-collar city of Beloit, Wisconsin, and have worked in factories, on farms, in food service and sales. I am fascinated by the mechanisms of aging and the ever-growing scientific advancements that are decoupling aging and disability. While in medical school, I worked extensively in the Veterans Affairs. I chose to do my residency at Gundersen due to their national reputation for palliative and geriatric care.
I am a father first, a health professional and advocate second, and a lover of water, woodcraft and CrossFit.
