Summary
- After closing a private medical office of 15 years, I took a position for the Department of Corrections in Somers,Ct. In 2018, I resigned as Chief Medical Officer for the State of Connecticut Department of Corrections.
Currently working as Medical Director at Eastern Connecticut State University.
My goal is to help prevent the multitude of diseases that plaque our nation. It is very possible to avoid medication and discontinue some medications simply by living a healthier lifestyle.
