We are currently experiencing a technical issue that is impacting our ability to receive faxes. As a result, clinical documentation and prescription requests sent via fax may not be received. Our team is actively working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible, though we do not yet have an estimated time for resolution. In the meantime, we encourage patients to use the patient portal for prescription refill requests or to call your primary care provider for any urgent needs. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding as we work to restore our systems.

I am very happy to be returning to Maine, where I was born and raised, and joining InterMed.

 

Even though I have been away for a few years, I am proud to consider myself a Mainer. I graduated from Bowdoin College and attended medical school at the University of New England College of Osteopathic Medicine. I then completed my residency at Maine Medical Center. I have been practicing medicine in Northern California for the last five years as a primary care physician for North Marin Internal Medicine, a practice affiliated with the University of California - San Francisco Medical Center.

 

I have also had the gratifying opportunity to take care of the clinic’s hospitalized patients at Novato Community Hospital and also act as a medical director at Novato Healthcare Center, a skilled nursing facility.

 

What I enjoy most about primary care is the whole-person approach: getting to know my patients and their families on a more personal level in order to provide them the best medical care and help them live their healthiest lives.

 

I have special interests in preventative medicine, geriatrics and women’s health.

 

My husband and I look forward to introducing our two daughters to Maine’s beautiful outdoors and its four seasons. After living elsewhere, I know that Maine is the best place to live and raise a family. I look forward to serving the Maine community.
