Grand Rapids Family Practice Residency Program
• Spectrum Health • Mercy Health Saint Mary's
I have been involved in international medical relief activities for many years. In my leisure time, I enjoy musical pursuits and pretend that I can golf, but mostly love to spend time with my wife, our 8 children and 6 grandkids.
Wayne State University
Teaching has always been in integral part of my professional life. I've been involved with medical education in some fashion for over 30 years, serving on the faculty of 2 medical schools and as program director for 2 palliative medicine fellowship programs. In addition to my teaching responsibilities, I am a practicing palliative physician, and also serve on the Advisory Committee for Pain and Symptom Management to the governor of the state of Michigan.
West Michigan is a vibrant area for culture, education, environment and recreation, and as such has been a great place to live and raise a family. It has a sophisticated medical care system with excellent, state of the art health care resources. In all, it's a great place to live, practice, and play!

Pediatric Pain & Palliative Medicine
I enjoy working as both an attending physician in Pediatric Pain & Palliative Medicine and Pediatric Hospitalist. I am particularly interested in resident and fellow education, the stress that caregivers of children with chronic medical problems face, and improvement of communication among healthcare professionals and families.
I love to run, cycle, and hike. I also enjoy cooking and baking.
