About

Philosophy of care

I was drawn to Neurology because I love building a longterm relationship with my patients. The conditions I treat – Parkinson's Disease, dystonias and tremors – are often challenging, chronic diseases that involve years of comprehensive treatment. I love helping my patients understand their symptoms and the best therapies available for them.

Why I entered medicine

I took a roundabout path to Medicine. After finishing college, I worked on Wall Street in Investment Banking. While I appreciated the stimulating atmosphere it provided, I realized that I really missed human interaction. I went back to school and began my transition toward a more meaningful career. After many years of training, including medical school and residency at Georgetown University, I find myself in the career I always wanted.

Community involvement

My wife and I are new to the Lehigh Valley area and we are really excited to see what the area has to offer. Once settled here, I would love to find meaningful ways to give back to the community.  I previously worked with the Big Brother organization for several years, and I hope to find new mentoring opportunities here.

Personal interests

When I'm not at the hospital, you can usually find me outside in the mountains. I love outdoor sports like skiing, hiking, climbing, and mountain biking. I also enjoy playing tennis. My wife and I are currently looking to adopt a dog.
