Tell us about yourself.
I grew up in Ellijay, a small town in North Georgia and went to college at Berry College. I graduated with a double major in chemistry and biology and later went to medical school at Mercer in Macon. I completed my internal medicine residency here at Emory. After, residency here I was offered a position on faculty at Emory. I started working at the 1525 Clifton road practice in 2003. Later my practice expanded to include executive health. In 2013, after moving to 1365 Clifton, my practice was expanded again to include the Special Diagnostic Services Clinic. A clinic specializing in undiagnosed medical problems.
