About

I work with patients to navigate vaccine decisions by combining evidence-based information with motivational interviewing techniques that address their specific concerns and values. Whether you're managing vaccine hesitancy, planning immunizations across your lifespan, or preparing for travel, I take time to understand your health history and help you make informed choices that align with your needs. I offer flexible telehealth consultations via secure video or phone to make immunization guidance accessible and convenient.

Services offered

I provide comprehensive vaccine counseling for patients of all ages, from infants and children to adults and older adults. My approach combines detailed discussion of vaccine-preventable diseases, review of current immunization schedules, and exploration of individual health factors that may affect your vaccination decisions. I help patients understand the benefits and risks of vaccines, address common concerns and myths, and develop personalized immunization plans—whether for routine childhood vaccines, adult boosters, travel medicine requirements, or special populations including immunocompromised individuals. During our telehealth sessions, I review your medical history, discuss your vaccination goals, answer questions in depth, and provide clear recommendations based on current CDC and medical guidelines to support confident decision-making about your health.
