I believe VCOM helped prepare me well by laying an incredible foundation for the rest of my medical career. The professors during my 1st and 2nd years shared their clinical wisdom, and my preceptors 3rd and 4th years challenged and motivated me. Their passion in their respective fields gave me an appreciation and desire for excellence in primary care.

What my Practice looks like today
A great variety of rural outpatient family medicine.
What is the best advice you can give a medical student to help them in their path towards being a physician?
Medical school will be a challenging time, and it can also be a fun time. Set good boundaries to care for your physical, emotional, and spiritual health.
The accomplishment I am most proud of thus far in my career is
The accomplishment I am most proud of thus far in my career is making it through my intern year (without coffee)!
When I look back on my time at VCOM, I think fondly about
When I look back on my time at VCOM, I think fondly about Dr. Prater encouraging us at every seemingly insurmountable obstacle. I think about Dean Willcox sharing her film and TV recommendations in between classes. I think about all the clinical pearls from lecturers (pediatric maintenance fluids came in handy, Dr. Hardee!). I think about Dr. Fintel, a clinical preceptor my 4th year who embodied empathy and gentleness. I think about Dr. Thomas and her help as an advisor during residency applications. I’m so thankful for my time at VCOM.
For me, the most unforgettable moment in medical school was
For me, the most unforgettable moment in medical school was late night studying with friends, the half marathon we ran in Nashville, TN, before studying for COMLEX Level 1 and the joy of Match Day. I must say that graduation was extra special as well; I got hooded by Dean Willcox and my dad!
When I am not working, I enjoy
Spending time with my wife and children, all things film, running, yoga, being introverted, and small house projects, because I'm handy, but I'm not THAT handy.
