About Me

I have a longstanding interest in cutting edge technology and its impact on medicine. This interest, together with meaningfully impacting care for my patients is what lead me to radiology—specifically interventional radiology. I bring this expertise to oncology to ensure that my patients receive exemplary care, performing minimal invasive diagnostic and therapeutic procedures focused on oncology. I am dedicated and passionate about my work as well as patent safety and satisfaction. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife and young daughter.
