About
Biography
I am a board-certified Family Medicine doctor specializing in adolescent medicine. My practice focuses on the unique health care needs of teenagers and young adults. As the medical director of the Teen Health Center, I am highly involved with the medical issues of patients presenting to the clinic, ranging from sports physicals to eating disorders, STI prevention, chronic care, and transgender issues. I also consult with patients from other disciplines on adolescent-related medical conditions.
I have served as the chief medical director in the Office of Health Services of the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice and as the vice president of the Faculty Council at Florida State University College of Medicine in Tallahassee.
