As an experienced board-certified osteopathic internist of more than 10 years, I am well versed in treating adult medical problems such as hypertension and diabetes just to name a few. I have worked in major hospitals in our area, taking care of patients with these problems in their acute phases with a "western" medicine approach. I also have interests in functional medicine and gut health and believe in taking a more "natural" approach first if possible, helping the body to heal itself...getting back to my osteopathic roots. Similar to concierge medicine practices, I offer conveniences like same- or next-day appointments. I am located in the heart of Columbia, SC and serve the surrounding areas which include Lexington and Irmo and various locations in South Carolina.
