She/Her

I am a Family Medicine physician (MD) practicing outpatient primary care for patients of all ages, bodies, and identities. My approach is trauma informed and patient centered at its core. I strive to partner with my patients to help them live their best authentic lives. Specific services include PrEP, behavior-based STI screening, STI treatment, gender affirming hormone therapy for both adults and youth, pregnancy prevention, insertion of IUDs and Nexplanon, "low risk" pregnancy care including suboxone therapy in pregnancy, and more. I am also kink knowledgeable and polyamory/consensual nonmonogamy knowledgeable. I am actively building my knowledge base for other communities and services, including intersex care and care for patients living with HIV. If you struggle getting through our phone system or have an unaffirming experience, please reach out to me by e-mail. I also recognize that every person's needs in health care are different, and so I gladly welcome feedback. On a personal level, I am openly bisexual and live in the Santa Cruz Mountains with five cats and my wife.
