I live a small town life with my wife Robin and two Newfoundland dogs, Otso and Grizzley. I enjoy an active outdoor life of biking, skiing, sailing, and mountaineering. I also have an active family life with two sons, their wonderful wives, and three grandchildren.

I practice functional medicine and strive to find the fundamental cause of health issues. I also love to inspire others as a motivational speaker and author of Just Be Well: A Book For Seekers of Vibrant Health.

Let me ask you a question: When was the last time you felt truly well? I don’t mean the last time you felt like there was nothing wrong. I mean the last time you felt deep, full wellness in your body, mind, and spirit. It’s a hard question to answer, isn’t it? And yet it’s crucial, and it’s where I start with every new patient.

I believe wellness is so much more than the absence of disease. I practice functional medicine because its is a system that addresses the underlying causes of disease, takes into account the interactions of the complex systems of the body, and builds a therapeutic partnership between patient and physician.
