Internal Medicine, Hospitalist

I have 19 years of experience as both an internist and a hospitalist, and continue to practice in outpatient and inpatient settings. My hospitalist experience has included both smaller hospitals and tertiary care centers. I presently practice in a busy, large outpatient diagnostic clinic. Our clinic receives referrals from both Arkansas and surrounding states for multiple specialties including neurology, pulmonary, endocrinology, and rheumatology. In addition, I currently practice at a large tertiary care hospital in Arkansas. Over the last 15 years, I have worked with medical malpractice attorneys at numerous law firms in both Arkansas and Missouri.
