Summary

• I am currently owner of Healing Arts Family Medicine and Direct Primary Care in Loveland, CO. After founding WildRiver Family Medicine in 2018, an opportunity to merge with Healing Arts, a traditional insurance based Family Practice for over 40 years, I have created Loveland Colorado's first Hybrid Direct Primary Care Practice. We have 4 providers, 7 support staff, over 40 years open as a practice and over 50 combined years of clinical experience among providers.
  
  I received my Masters in Physician Assistant Studies from King's College (Wilkes-Barre) in 2010. After graduating, I worked for a short time with an independent neurosurgery group in Reading, PA then changed directions to Emergency Medicine. I worked in Emergency Medicine and Urgent Care through 2015 then moved to Colorado where I took over a satellite clinic for a local community health center practicing family medicine. At this clinic which was attached to a community mental health clinic, I was the sole provider seeing patients for family care, in charge of 3 support staff. I also helped to start that clinic's first MAT program. I believe I was one of the first advanced practice provider's in the state of Colorado offering buprenorphine to patients with opiate addiction. In 2018, I left this practice to start WildRiver Family Medicine, a small single provider Direct Primary Care that remains the DPC arm of Healing Arts Family Medicine to this day. I have also worked at Front Range Clinic practicing addiction medicine throughout Northern Colorado. I hold memberships with the AAPA, CAPA and am certified in Advanced Wilderness Life Support.
