I started my career as a Registered Nurse in 1988. I worked on a medical surgical unit, obstetrics, emergency department, PACU, and operating room until 1999.

I then advanced to attend a Nurse Practitioner program at Community General Hospital in Syracuse. Upon graduating in 2000, I worked mostly in general surgery, and became qualified as a RNFA.

As a Nurse Practitioner, I have also worked in Urology, Orthopedics, Hospital Medicine. I joined an Otolaryngology practice in Geneva, in December 2014. This practice also evaluates and treats sleep disorders, such as sleep apnea, and evaluates and treats allergies and immunotherapy.

Our Geneva ENT office joined the URMC team 8/1/2015.

There are some technical aspects to my sleep treatment plan that are obtuse. Any lack of understanding comes from my inability to catch on and not from the performance of the provider.

She was the first person to take the time to listen to me and what I was going through. I've seen a lot of doctors for what I've been going through with dizziness. This time I feel confident that something will be done other than passing me on to the next doctor's office.
