Overview

I am a radiation oncologist specializing in genitourinary malignancies including prostate, bladder, kidney, and testicular cancer. I have a special interest in using short course, high dose and precision radiotherapy known as Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) for the treatment of cancers. I chose to be a radiation oncologist because I believe in the amazing ability of radiotherapy to not only treat cancer, but also to maintain and improve a patient's quality of life. I love to cook and eat delicious food and to spend time with my wonderful family.

I was drawn to the field of oncology because cancer is a terrifying diagnosis for most people. It is one of those health issues that make people very nervous. I find great satisfaction working with cancer patients to help allay their fears and provide the best care possible. For me, it is rewarding to work with individuals who express so much courage in overcoming a difficult diagnosis. It is very rare that a patient comes alone to an appointment. Usually they have a spouse, son or daughter, a brother or sister, or a mother or father accompanying them. I spend a lot of time answering family member’s questions, who often provide a significant amount of care and support for their loved one. My job is to help educate both the patient and the family and to formulate a plan by which we can provide comprehensive care for all of the patient’s needs.

His top areas of expertise are Lung Cancer, Pleuropulmonary Blastoma, Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC), and Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
