About Angie
I have been a Physician Assistant now for over 19 years. Nine of these years, I have spent caring for OB/GYN patients. The rest of my practice has been in Urgent care and Family practice setting. Although I really loved working in the Emergency room, I did not enjoy working the long hours once I had children. I really enjoy building last relationships with my patients. I love that I have patients that I have seen since I started and look forward to seeing them yearly or when they are once again expecting. I am very passionate about obstetrics and enjoy the education part of my job. I find caring for ladies during their pregnancy very exciting. I am sometimes the first person to congratulate her on being pregnant and the last one to see her in the office before she delivers. I also enjoy seeing the younger patient population and educating her on issues related to that age group. I am a very compassionate practitioner and want to see that each patient receives the best care possible. I think that it is very important that I listen to each patient individually and spend the time needed to address her concerns and questions. Outside of the office, I enjoy spending time with my husband and three boys. I have two baseball players and one golfer. I spend most of my free time watching all of them play. As a family, we enjoy many outdoor activities such as snow skiing, hiking, and watching sports.
