Overview

Philosophy of care | I believe a strong physician-patient relationship is key to providing excellent care. You should be able to trust that your physician is open and honest about your care. | Why I entered medicine | Growing up, I spent a lot of time at my dad's medical office and as a volunteer at a local hospital, observing the interactions between physicians and their patients. It was amazing to see how happy and grateful patients were when they were able to maintain their health or felt better after treatment. This instilled in me a desire to want to help people feel their best. | Community involvement | I helped to take care of the uninsured population at the health centers in Philadelphia during my years of training and I hope to continue by helping the underserved population in the Lehigh Valley. | Personal interests | I love Philadelphia sports, traveling, trying new foods and spending time with my family.
