We post reviews for MSK healthcare providers who have at least 30 patient experience surveys completed. If you do not see reviews for a provider, it may be because they do not yet have enough survey responses, or the provider may not be part of the group of healthcare providers included in the survey.
Only outpatient providers are included in the survey. Healthcare providers who only work in the hospital or in urgent care are not included in the survey. Pathologists or researchers who do not provide direct care to patients do not have reviews.
I am an internist with a focus on hospice and palliative medicine who aims to provide high-quality care to patients with serious and complex illnesses. As a former hospitalist, I am experienced in the management of seriously and critically ill patients, and I constantly tailor my knowledge and approach to each patient’s individual needs. My primary purpose is to help patients live maximally and enhance their quality of life while they pursue disease-directed therapy that aligns with their values, goals, and preferences.

Throughout my time as a chief resident, an attending hospitalist, and now, a hospice and palliative medicine attending, I have had the privilege of teaching medical trainees the skills needed to be a strong clinician. My goal is to always facilitate optimal communication between patients and their oncology teams, and to alleviate the distress that often accompanies cancer treatment.
Outside of the clinic, I enjoy spending time with my family and close friends. My hobbies include dancing, arts and crafts, and exploring the vibrant culture of New York through the eyes of my toddler.
