PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND
I started my career as a PA in 1999. Fast forward more than two decades, I remain within the same practice. I currently head the Lipid and Heart Disease Prevention Clinic. It is an honor to continue the programs founded by my mentor, Dr. Carl Rubenstein, with whom I worked collaboratively for 17 years I am the only Physician Assistant in Oklahoma to be certified as a Clinical Lipid Specialist. It designates my extensive knowledge in the identification and management of dyslipidemia and related metabolic disorders which lead to cardiovascular disease.
I use traditional tools, advanced lipid testing and cardiac imaging to offer risk assessment and strategies to reduce a person’s chance of having a first heart attack or stroke. I also work closely with partner Cardiologists to rapidly achieve lipid treatment goals after suffering cardiac event.
