I am a fellow in the Pediatric Survivorship Program. As a general pediatrician, I am specializing in the long-term care of children and young adults who are survivors of childhood cancer. My current research focuses on medical and quality of life outcomes in survivors of retinoblastoma, a rare tumor of the eye, as well as developing predictors of late effects in patients who have received high-risk therapies. I am also interested in the identification of genetic markers associated with increased susceptibility for specific late effects.
After completing my pediatric residency at NYP-Cornell, I served as Pediatric Chief Resident here at Memorial Sloan-Kettering. During that year, I coordinated and helped supervise residents rotating through our inpatient pediatric service. I was also fortunate to learn a great deal about the inpatient management of many of the cancers which our patients have fought. It is exciting to see these same patients after the conclusion of their cancer treatment in our Survivorship clinic.
