Overview
I have a broad and extensive training in all aspects of cardiac and thoracic surgery from gold-standard open operations to minimally invasive, endovascular and robotic techniques. My primary concern is patient safety and quality in outcomes. I enjoy spending my free time with my lovely wife, raising our two children, playing hockey, and enjoying the outdoors.
