It provides an extra layer of support combined with curative treatment at any stage of illness and is not limited to end-of-life.

After completing his family medicine residency at Baptist Health Deaconess Madisonville in Kentucky, he spent five years practicing outpatient family medicine at Paducah Family Medicine with Mercy Health in Paducah, Kentucky. He earned his medical degree from st. George’s University in Grenada, West Indies.
