Overview

Special Clinical Interests: Facial Plastic Surgery including Facial Cosmetic Surgery, Endoscopic Sinus Surgery, Head and Neck Cancer, Thyroid Surgery Why I Became a Surgeon:  Both of my parents are physicians (now retired), and I always knew medicine was the path for me.  Surgery was a natural fit because of the artistic aspects and my love of building things and working with my hands.  Otolaryngology allows me to not only be a surgeon, but also treat medical diseases of the head and neck, and I love the fine detail work that is inherent in our specialty. Personal Interests and Hobbies: photography, especially wildlife; woodworking, cooking, hiking, piano, bass guitarI strive to give every patient the best possible care, and to always under-promise and over-deliver. Surgery is a demanding business and I don't compromise with my patients' care.Appointed Secretary of the American Board of Facial Cosmetic Surgery.
