I enjoy working with kids and young adults. Prior to my Physician Assistant studies and training, I was a high school biology teacher and dealt with behavioral health issues in a different setting. A career in medicine carries the unique opportunity to help others through physical and emotional ailments with communication and commitment. I believe in treating every patient with an individualized and empathetic approach, supported by evidence-based practical measures that lead to the best outcome for their life.

    Rachael is so invested in him and our visits never feel rushed. She had so much helpful insight and was so intuitive to what my daughter might need. My kiddo feels so heard talking to her. She really gets on her level and lets their conversation direct the course of treatment, with input from parents as to their experience as well. I am so happy with this connection and highly recommend her care.

    Rachael was fabulous. In the past i feel like I've had to go into battle to get my son the care he needs. Rachael was understanding and very friendly. Like a breath of fresh air! I'm looking forward to our next visit and working with her with my daughter who was just diagnosed.
