I have always wanted to be a physician. My older brother had a critical injury at a young age and was frequently hospitalized. The hospital staff and doctors were always kind and became role models. My approach is to treat every patient as I would treat my family. I try to be honest and upfront with the patient and their family. I also consider the effect on the person's whole life when offering recommendations for treatment. I am a general surgeon and enjoy performing all general surgical procedures including but not limited to breast, laparoscopic and robot laparoscopy, as well as endoscopy. Outside of work, I enjoying jogging, reading, gardening and chasing after my two active children.
