Medicine is such a rewarding field. I get to build long-lasting and strong relationships with patients; I love to be part of their lives, both to celebrate their successes and to help them when something goes wrong. All topics of medicine are a wonderful challenge, and it is so interesting to study and continue to learn throughout my career. \n In addition to primary care, I very much enjoy sports medicine and am fortunate to help both professional athletes as well as those simply having fun and staying active. I currently serve as the medical director for United Soccer League's North Carolina FC, the head team physician for Wakefield High School, and I am one of the company physicians for the Carolina Ballet. I also used to be the head team physician for the Buies Creek Astros Class A Carolina League team. These roles have allowed me to give back to my community while providing remarkable medical care. \n My wife, Dr. Lily Harris, is a pediatrician. We met in medical school and now have two amazing daughters who make us very proud. When I am not spending time with family, I enjoy listening to live music and playing my guitar. Golf, tennis and hiking keep me active. Sports have always been a passion of mine, especially pulling for the Wolfpack!
