Overview
I am a pulmonologist and critical care specialist with particular interests in breathing disorders, lung nodules, and lung cancer screening. My focus lies on patients with complex problems who require meticulous review of tests, X-rays, and past treatments. I collaborate closely with my patients to ensure they comprehend the impact of their lung condition and to devise personalized testing plans or treatments. Personally, I am passionate about strenuous hobbies and sports, which fuels my desire to understand how breathing difficulties influence my patients' lives and activities.
