Philosophy of care
My aim is to provide patient-centered quality and evidenced-based medicine while placing a special emphasis on the team-based approach that is required while working in a sub-specialty of medicine.
Why Nicole went into medicine
At a young age, I had an impactful personal experience as a patient where my family and I were met by providers with grace, kindness, and empathy. That experience inspired me to become a healthcare provider, and it is my goal to offer the same compassionate care to my patients.

Nicole’s favorite advice to give to patients
Discussing the health of your digestive tract can feel vulnerable – please trust that I am here to help.
Hobbies
I enjoy spending quality time with my family and friends. I love traveling, whether that be more locally to visit friends or farther to enjoy a new experience. I enjoy being active, indoors and out, with sports (softball, volleyball), hiking, and more recently hot yoga. One thing I’d like to get involved in is cross-country skiing.
