Stephanie said that “seeing each patient as a person and treating them with dignity and respect is foremost in my practice”. Stephanie is also LGBTQIA+ friendly.

Stephanie said that her late father would often say she ran on spite and “if you told me I couldn’t do something, I would do it”. She is a determined, ambitious, and driven person and loves learning new things and challenging herself. Stephanie loves live music and goes to concerts as often as she can. She also enjoys working out and reading. Her family includes her husband, her son, and her daughter.

Stephanie’s favorite book is “Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil”, and her favorite movie is “Tombstone” (1993 with Kurt Russell, Sam Elliot, Bill Paxton, and Val Kilmer) and any movie with Keanu Reeves. She listens mainly to rock music, but her overall musical taste is eclectic. Stephanie enjoys outdoor concerts under the stars, and the beach, relaxing and reading in her house, and talking with friends and family.
