Overview

Philosophy of care | I approach and treat every patient like a family member to ensure they receive the highest quality care. The needs of the patient always come first and foremost. I hold myself to the highest standards for surgical outcomes and clinical excellence. | Why I entered medicine | Growing up with both parents as physicians, I was inspired early and found science and medicine fascinating. I believe being a physician is a privilege and treasure the trust patients and families put in me to care for them or their loved ones. | Community involvement | I am involved with nonprofits PanCan and Colontown as we seek to improve outcomes and research funding for new and improved therapies for pancreatic cancer and colorectal cancer. | Personal interests | I mainly enjoy spending time with my wife and two daughters doing any variety of activities. We enjoy baseball games, Big Ten college football, amusement parks and weekend trips to the beach or lake.

Philosophy of care | As a surgical oncologist, I’m passionate about beating cancer. We hope to eradicate it and do everything possible to maximize the patient’s quality of life. I talk to patients in a language they can understand. When I make a treatment recommendation, I put myself in their shoes and tell them what I would do if I were faced with these options. | Why I entered medicine | I think I was born to be a doctor. My father was a doctor, and I was fascinated with anatomy as a child. I had anatomy models and would constantly play with them. During my first surgical rotation in medical school, I was hooked. Surgery is anatomy. The intensity, teamwork and ability to fix problems in the operating room is what drives me. | Community involvement | I find it deeply gratifying to support organizations that inspire me. I’m a long-time donor to Semper Fi, a group that gives financial assistance and support to post-9/11 injured veterans and their families. I feel strongly about supporting our military service members who sacrifice so much to protect us. I’m also an enthusiastic backer of Yellowstone National Park. I went there as a kid and later took my own kids when they were young. I’ve always been in awe of Yellowstone’s majesty and beauty. | Personal interests | I enjoy spending time with my girls (my wife and three daughters) and my boys (my two dogs). I stay physically fit by running and working out at home. I enjoy landscaping and reading the classics, and I’m an avid Philadelphia sports fan.

His top areas of expertise are Pancreatic Cancer, Familial Pancreatic Cancer, Cholangiocarcinoma (Bile Duct Cancer), Pancreatectomy, and Small Bowel Resection.
