Medicare and federal program status

Opted out of Medicare from October 1, 2025 through October 1, 2027. Medicare does not pay for this clinician’s services: patients with Medicare sign a private contract and pay the clinician directly. They can still order tests and refer Medicare patients to other providers.

At a glance

In the NPI registry since
2020

The NPI date is when this clinician registered for a National Provider Identifier, the billing number used on health claims. It is not a license, graduation or board-certification date. What an NPI is

Education and training

  • 2020Registered with an NPI (national billing number; not a license date)

Medicare’s Care Compare data doesn’t list this clinician’s medical school. Undergraduate school, residency, fellowship, licensing exams and board certification aren’t in public federal data. Board certification can be confirmed with the certifying board (ABMS member boards for MDs, AOA boards for DOs).

Specialties and state licenses

  • Family Medicine Physician primary

As reported to the NPI registry. To confirm a license is current, check the state medical board.

Medicare prescriptions

Prescriptions filled under Medicare Part D, including refills. CMS leaves out drugs prescribed fewer than 11 times.

Industry-funded research

Named as a principal investigator on 12 industry-funded studies in 2025, from 4 companies. The companies reported $1,084,227 in research payments for these studies, mostly to the institutions running them.

From CMS Open Payments research payments, where companies name up to five principal investigators per payment. Research payments usually go to hospitals, universities and research sites, not to the investigator personally. A payment is not evidence of wrongdoing.
