Biographical information
I am a physician with a Master’s of Public Health degree; board-certified in both occupational medicine and ophthalmology. I am also a retired Navy medical officer, combat veteran and former Marine Corps Medical Battalion Commander. For the past 12 years, I have been a reserve deputy sheriff in southern Colorado and have served as an academy instructor.
I am passionate about issues concerning the health and safety of all workers; particularly law enforcement officers, military members and veterans. I am especially interested in the diagnosis and treatment of illnesses and injuries associated with these types of work, including the areas of fitness for duty, environmental stressors, disability, return to work and reasonable accommodation.
