pediatrician and an educator.

He has served as both Chair of Pediatrics for Napa and Solano and Chair 
of the Chiefs of Pediatrics for the Northern California region.
  The Napa and Solano County Medical Societies award this distinction

deserving of this award and recognition.

Pediatrics in 1983 and has been certified by the American Board of 
Pediatrics since 1986. He served as an Adjunct Clinical Professor of
