Family Medicine

Hugo

As a primary care practitioner, my top priority is to provide high-quality care to all of my patients. I strive to work collaboratively with each individual to develop a treatment plan that enhances their quality of life and addresses their unique needs. By focusing on treating the whole person—rather than just the symptoms—I aim to build trusted, long-lasting relationships that allow me to support my patients through every phase of their health journey.

Special Interests

  • Preventative medicine
  • Women’s health
  • Minor procedures

My Approach to Care

My approach is simple: I believe in actively listening to my patients and offering guidance that is tailored to their personal circumstances. Whether it’s managing a chronic condition, making healthy lifestyle changes, or improving mental well-being, my goal is always to partner with my patients to achieve their best health outcomes. I’m passionate about creating a compassionate environment where everyone feels heard and supported. I believe that kindness and trust are essential in both personal and professional life.

Outside the Office

I love taking my golden retriever to the dog park. When things get busy, my go-to self care routine is simply getting a good night's sleep.

Fun Facts

  • My go-to karaoke song is 'All the Small Things' by Blink-182
  • If I weren’t a provider, I’d love to be a veterinarian
  • Pizza is the one food I could eat every single day and never get tired of it
  • If I could prescribe the perfect vacation, it would be a getaway to Kauai, Hawaii
