My private practice is small which is ideal for me to provide psychiatric care to you with compassion.  


My background in Family Medicine gives me and my patients an advantage to getting to the root cause of the problem.  For example, is your depression caused by factors such as Vitamin D Deficiency or a thyroid condition, or a combination of factors in your general medical and psycho-social health?  Are genetics part of the problem? 


My Philosophy is Simple: 


  • I spend real quality time with my patients, listening and taking notes and getting to know them, which includes their life, family and work. Time will be spent in advance or after reviewing any and all medical records necessary and provided to me. The computer will not be a distraction to the real interaction I need with my patients.  I will not be typing and half  listening at the same time! 


  • I collaborate with my fellow colleagues which benefits you and the other clinicians that you see. These professionals will be physicians, psychologists, marriage family therapists and licensed clinical social workers.  We are all better at helping patients when we work together.


  • Lastly, the 2 letters after my surname are M and D. To me, these letters not only stand for Medical Doctor, but almost more important to me, is it stands for Medical Detective. I use all of my skills in Family Medicine, Psychiatry and 26 years of practice to get to the heart of the matter with my patients.

Career History


Prior to my decision to enter medical school, I was a professional jazz trombonist from 1975 to 1988.  I still enjoy being a musician but decided that my long-term career path should be medicine.  I continued to work as a musician while finishing my studies to enter medical school.  My Family Practice Internship and Residency at University of Las Vegas Medical School placed a strong emphasis on treating patients with mental health disorders and I enjoyed it. 


As my career progressed, I decided in 2014 to only focus on treating patients with mental health disorders.  I took care of my private practice patients and provided medication management for therapy groups that helped the underserved patient population in Las Vegas and had the opportunity to collaborate with the therapists who were helping these patients. 


I continued providing services to them and then became the Head of Psychiatric Services at Clark County Detention Center providing care for inmates who had serious mental health conditions.  


My practice is now limited to serving patients in the states of Texas and Nevada.  It is important to me to collaborate with physicians and therapists who are also seeing the patient, because working together helps the patient and the other doctors and/or therapists involved in their care.
