Barbara chose to pursue a career in medicine and attributes her father's influence and support for helping to make it happen. She has always relished the opportunity to learn, no matter the topic. With a goal to excel in her studies, her love of medicine and a desire to work with patients she attained a degree as a physician assistant in urology. In her free time, Barbara enjoys reading, watching movies, traveling, skiing, boating, swimming and enjoying time with her pets. I have loved medicine for years and appreciate the opportunity to assist my patients with their healthcare needs.
