- Bio
- I am a Family Physician and mom. I live and work in SW Pennsylvania. Over the past few years I have had several serious health problems of my own and found myself on the other side of the stethoscope, so to speak. I feel this has given me new insight and improved my ability to communicate with and relate to my patients.

hospital I was back at the office doing paperwork. I wasn't
"working" per se--that wouldn't come for another couple of
weeks--but I felt the need to go and review letters, labs, and
other test results. The following day, my husband and I… Read full post »
Pivotal Event, Part 2
Darkness . . . . . . . . Gradually a low beeping noise, and hushed voices. I gradually became aware of my surroundings.
"She's waking up." Someone observed, as my eyes fluttered opened and tried to focus on the people around the room. I could tell instantly that I was… Read full post »
