Get to Know Me

I am a medical oncologist and hematologist who works as a part of a team of experts for people with blood cancers, with a focus on lymphomas and genitourinary cancers.

I currently see patients at MSK Monmouth in Middletown, New Jersey. I take pride in providing compassionate, personalized care for people closer to home.

I am actively involved in clinical research to improve patient outcomes and treatment tolerability. I specifically focus on strategies to reduce the risk of toxicity and complications in patients while maintaining effectiveness, particularly for older people with cancer.    

What I Do at MSK

I'm a lymphoma specialist, which is a doctor with special training in diagnosing and treating lymphoma (lim-FOH-muh). This cancer starts in the cells of the immune system.

I'm a genitourinary (GU) medical oncologist, which is a cancer doctor who specializes in genitourinary (jeh-nih-toh-YOOR-ih-nayr-ee) cancers. This includes bladder, kidney, penis, prostate, and testicular cancers.
