Summary

I have worked in labor and delivery for the last 23 years. I have always prided myself on taking great care of my patients and their family during their stay. I have cared for mothers who have the easiest childbirth to the most difficult. I really enjoy having a close working relationship with our physicians especially in the OR where I am comfortable scrubbing and circulating.
