My interest in obstetrical care started back in medical school in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.  After seven years in family practice here in Abbotsford,  I was convinced by another family physician, Dr. Cindy Shaw, to join her in providing dedicated maternity and newborn care for this community.  That was over twenty years ago! I feel privileged to be part of this team of care providers helping safeguard the miracle of new life coming into this world.  It is incredibly rewarding to meet and care for so many families in this area, many of whom originate from different parts of the world.  I love hearing their individual stories, and am a better person for the relationships I've made over the years.  My family and my relationship with God are what anchor me, and though our children are now all independent young adults, family is still central to my life.
