General Practitioners

Pediatric Care
I always knew that I wanted a career in medicine. Growing up, I always admired my dad. As a physician, he genuinely enjoyed going to work every day and was able to help so many patients and their families. However, I didn’t always know that I wanted to work in the same field. When I started PA school I thought for sure I wanted to work in Pediatrics. But on rotations, I found myself looking forward to pulmonary and sleep cases. When I was lucky enough to do a rotation with Pulmonary Associates, I was certain where I wanted to be.

Smoking Cessation
My passion for Health Care revolves around patient education as well as making patients feel they are in control of their choices for health care and lifestyle changes. I will continue to adamantly discuss smoking cessation with my patients as I still see this as the number 1 lung related disease. My goal is to assure them I am here to help, but the choice is theirs regarding all aspects of patient care.
Sleep Disorders
Our practice began with a commitment to excellence in the clinical care of patients with respiratory and sleep disorders using modern concepts of treatment.
Family Practice
I grew up in small town in Kansas surrounded by lots of family. Like most teenagers, when it came time to go to college, I could not wait to get out of town. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life, what to major in? My first thought was that I wanted to be a nurse because I did enjoy helping people. One biology class made me rethink that option. After looking at multiple careers, I picked what I enjoyed most at the time and continue to enjoy to this day. That was exercising. I went onto obtain my Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science. After college, I returned to my home town temporarily and was left with that question, “Now what?”. A friend of a friend contacted me to fill a position as a receptionist in a 1-physician family practice. Having no other offers, I jumped in head first. This is where I found my love for healthcare, and finally, a career I could be excited about.
Electrocardiogram
Each study has different study schedules and your coordinator will go over that in detail with you. Generally all studies require blood draws, EKG’s and office visits. Some studies will require additional items like completing a daily diary, or sleep studies. Each protocol has different requirements. A complete study schedule will be given to you during your first office visit.

Labor and Delivery
I was born in Phoenix and even as a little girl I knew I would be a nurse. My mother was a labor and delivery nurse and she loved what she did – her stories of patients and doctors was so exciting to me! The majority of my 27 yr. career has been spent as an ICU nurse and I felt that the technical aspect of that care was what I loved best. When I became a nurse practitioner, I discovered that I loved talking to patients and listening to what they had to tell me- that was a surprising discovery about myself.

Internal Medicine
After graduating from the College of Osteopathic Medicine, I completed my internship in Plantation, FL then came to Arizona to complete my Residency and Fellowship at Banner University Medical Center Phoenix (Formerly Banner Good Samaritan Hospital). While at BUMC, I was named the first DO Chief Resident in Internal Medicine.

Physical Therapists

Sports Medicine
When I started my medical training many years ago, I never thought I would end up in the field of pulmonary and critical care medicine. Looking back, however, this journey reflected, in part, who I am. My interest in sports medicine and athletic activities brought me closer to pulmonary and exercise physiology. I wanted to understand the capacity and limitation of the pulmonary system, as well as how various diseases such as asthma, COPD, fibrosis, and bronchiectasis affect it. My background in internal medicine and pediatrics helps me appreciate the pathophysiology and progression of diseases such as cystic fibrosis, and their impact on those who are living with these diseases from childhood to adulthood. But these interest s and curiosities became reality because I was fortunate enough to have great teachers and mentors who taught and encouraged me to pursue this field. I believe that I need to do the same for my patients in helping them understand their illnesses so that they can live with, and sometimes overcome such limitations. While I like to be my patients’ partner in health, I know there will be times that my patients will need a little more “assertive encouragement” to take more responsibility in their health. Perhaps that part came from my background as a first generation immigrant where successes are earned, not given.
