Anemia | Biliary Disease | Esophageal Diseases | Gastroenterology | Gastroesophageal Reflux | Inflammatory Bowel Disease | Intestinal Diseases | Liver Disease | Peptic Ulcer Disease | Stomach Diseases/DisordersI received my Bachelor’s degree from DeSales University in Medical Studies and then completed my Master’s Degree there as well in Physician Assistant Studies.
Our practice (St. Luke’s Gastroenterology – Twin Rivers) is dedicated to the treatment of all gastrointestinal and liver diseases. I have managed patients with a multitude of gastrointestinal issues in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I have given informational presentations to the community at local hospitals, trained incoming physician assistants, served as preceptor for DeSales PA students, served as sole provider/specializing in Hepatitis C treatment and I attended yearly conferences in gastroenterology and internal medicine to obtain up-to-date medical knowledge.
I have been a member of American College of Gastroenterology (ACG), as well as American Academy of Physician Assistants (AAPA) and the Pennsylvania Society of Physician Assistants (PSPA). I have been practicing in the field of GI for the past 15 years.
I am excited to be living in the Lehigh Valley with my husband and my daughter. I enjoy reading, traveling and exercising as well as spending time with my family.
