As a hematologist/oncologist at Memorial Cancer Institute, I bring a wealth of expertise to diagnosing and treating patients with lung cancer. My focus is on providing the best possible research-backed care, coupled with compassion and support, to help patients navigate their cancer journey, from diagnosis to treatment and beyond.

I chose to focus on oncology because I find it incredibly rewarding to guide patients through difficult and challenging times. I cherish the deep and lasting bonds that result from this shared experience.

I actively listen to patients’ concerns, provide emotional support, and treat everyone with the empathy and respect we all deserve. I understand and consider patients' physical and emotional challenges and offer reassurance and comfort. By creating a trusting and supportive environment, I can thoroughly evaluate patients and provide the best care possible.

In addition to caring for patients, I am also involved in clinical research regarding lung cancer and have published and presented on many aspects of cancer care.
