About
Philosophy of care
My philosophy of care is to give all patients the same quality of treatment that I would want for a loved one. I strive to treat all patients with respect and provide the best medical treatment possible with modern medicine.
Why I entered medicine
I was inspired to enter medicine because at an early age I recognized I enjoyed science more than any other field. I was particularly interested in neuroscience and wanted to be in a field where I could apply this knowledge to making patients healthier. Neurology was an easy choice because I could have an intellectually stimulating and personally gratifying career.
Community involvement
I support Penn State childhood cancer fundraising, as well as participate in local church philanthropy and service efforts.
Personal interests
When I am away from work, I enjoy Philadelphia sports, traveling, and spending time with family.
