About Me
I'm a general surgeon at Porter Medical Center. I have been board certified by the American Board of Surgery and am certified by the Vermont Board of Medicine. I earned my medical degree at Northeast Ohio Medical University and completed my residency at Summa Akron City Hospital in 2017. I also completed a fellowship in head and neck endocrine surgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital in 2018.
