After 20 years as an internist in Clearwater, Florida providing quality care to large panels of patients I partnered with Dr Caballero at PPS to practice in an environment that provides ample time to foster a more personal, in-depth relationship with patients.
I embrace the opportunity to serve as your advocate for good health in every regard. I believe in thoroughly addressing all aspects of your well-being. My training in public health underscores the value I place on Preventive Medicine and Wellness. My experience as a clinical instructor, primary care provider, hospital attending physician, and former nursing home medical director equip me to manage complex health concerns. As your Private Physician, I welcome the opportunity to serve you providing compassionate, accessible, unrushed, highest quality medical care.
