Overview
I grew up in Northeast Ohio. I was tired of the winters and snow in that part of the country. After medical school, I chose to do my pediatric residency in the warmer climate of North Carolina. While at Duke, I met my wife. (She’s also a pediatrician.) She is from Lenexa and wanted to be closer to her family, so here I am in the KC area. I’ve now been a pediatrician for more than two decades. Time flies!.
