Personal

I enjoy seeing a variety of patients, both pediatric and adult. I was an officer in the US Army and spent several years teaching military ENT residents at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, TX . I travelled frequently to Honduras performing medical mission work for chronic ear disease. I have four school-aged children who keep me busy outside of my practice. My wife is currently in nursing school. My hobbies include fossil collecting, practicing traditional Japanese Karate and fixing broken things at the cabin in Hayward, WI.
