About Me
I strongly value the relationships I build with my patients in the Emergency Department. I take pride in connecting with patients and listening carefully to understand their concerns.
As an Emergency Department physician, it's a privilege to help people when they need it most.
I earned my medical degree from the University of Connecticut. I completed Emergency Medicine residency training at New York-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital.
The greatest privilege working in medicine is the opportunity to care for people in the community. I deeply care for my patients and feel incredibly fortunate to work alongside the remarkable team at Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital.
It's a privilege to help people when they need it most.
