What do your patients say?

“I tend to spend a lot of time talking to patients. People have told me I am a good listener, that I am direct and speak frankly, but with genuine care.” 

What would you like your patients to know about you?

“I care about the success of Valor Health and about the community I serve. A community hospital is an essential part of a small town like Emmett. Rural communities across this country have seen major economic changes… one industry that is indispensable for a town like Emmett is healthcare, and the foundation of healthcare is the community hospital.”
