Overview
As the medical director of therapeutic Endoscopy at Swedish, I am dedicated to providing care that is both comprehensive and compassionate, uniquely tailored to your individual needs. My goal is to ensure your health journey is supported with expertise and understanding. After graduating from Madras Medical College in India, I completed my residency in Internal Medicine at Wayne State University in Detroit, where I also served as the Chief Resident in patient safety and quality (CRQS). Further honing my skills, I pursued a fellowship in Gastroenterology at the Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN and received advanced endoscopy training at Virginia Mason Medical Center in Seattle. These experiences have equipped me with expertise in managing pancreaticobiliary disease, esophageal disorders, and early GI malignancies. In addition to my clinical practice, I am actively engaged in research and have contributed to over 50 peer-reviewed publications. As an invited reviewer for leading journals, I remain committed to staying at the forefront of medical advancements, ensuring the highest quality of care for my patients. I look forward to partnering with you in your healthcare journey.
