As an emergency medicine physician at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to providing high-quality care in a fast-paced and dynamic environment. The variety, acuity, and pace of emergency medicine drew me to this field early in my career. I take pride in delivering the best possible care to individuals from all walks of life, ensuring that each patient receives the highest standard of emergency care available.

With years of experience in the field, I have honed my rapid assessment and treatment skills, ensuring that patients receive timely and effective care. My commitment to medical education is also a significant aspect of my career, as I supervise residents and mentor medical students, helping to shape the next generation of leaders in emergency medicine.

My work in the emergency department involves making meaningful connections with patients, even during brief interactions, and positively impacting their health. I strive to bring humility and compassion into every patient encounter, knowing that my actions can significantly influence their hospital stay and overall wellbeing.

My journey into medicine began in New York City, where I completed my specialty training and have since served as an attending physician. My educational background and passion for emergency medicine drive me to continuously improve patient care and contribute to the field through teaching and mentorship.
