About Me
I treat a variety of conditions, including endometrial cancer, ovarian cancer, cervical cancer, vulvar cancer and vaginal cancer. I specialize in primary interval and secondary surgical debulking of advanced ovarian cancer, minimally invasive gynecologic surgery (robotic and laparoscopic procedures) and fertility-preserving surgery for gynecologic cancers. My research interests include gynecologic cancer genetics, "liquid biopsies" in gynecologic cancer, cell-free circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and clinical trials in gynecologic oncology.
As a native-born Vermonter, I am passionate about providing the highest quality of care for gynecologic cancer right here in the Green Mountain state. The strength of patients in the face of medical adversity inspired me to become a physician and continues to inspire my treatment of women with gynecologic cancer.
Unlike any other surgical subspecialty, Gynecologic Oncology allows me the opportunity to develop long-term relationships with my patients as I guide them through their treatment, from the time of their diagnosis through surgery, chemotherapy and long-term follow-up. It is these relationships that motivate me to find ways to improve the quality of care provided to patients, both in the clinic or operating room and through research.
I strive to make sure my patients feel that their concerns are being listened to and addressed. My philosophy is that the treatment of gynecologic cancer is not "one-size fits all." I see it as my role to help people understand their diagnoses, listen to their desires and goals, and provide them with options so that, together, we can identify the best treatment plan.
