Eau Claire, WI
Hospital
1221 Whipple St., Eau Claire, WI 54703Provider's Bio
My role as a doctor is to help you achieve your health and life goals. That involves knowing all the latest medical practices and presenting them clearly and concisely, without medical jargon. I believe the most crucial part of developing a successful doctor-patient relationship includes active listening, treating you with empathy, and responding honestly to your questions and concerns.
As a pulmonologist, I specialize in treating various lung diseases, such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD, and diagnosing and managing lung nodules. My clinical practice includes outpatient consultative appointments and caring for hospitalized patients with complex lung diseases. I also specialize in critical care medicine, and provide care through diagnosis, treatment and support of critically ill patients.
During my free time, I enjoy reading, hiking, game nights with family and friends, and participating in soccer.
