Summary

  • I mostly see patients for ADHD, and my practice has extended to include adults. I manage their attention problems; their PCP's handle the rest! This has combined my interest in talking and counseling with patients about lifestyle issues along with my medical knowledge of how to approach the treatment of attention and self-esteem problems to help my patients live their lives to their utmost potential. I am also training to be a life coach with the LIFE Leadership program--an exciting adventure for this day and time in the history of our nation.
