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.

Diagnostic Radiology
I am a body-imaging radiologist who specializes in imaging of the chest. My work involves the detection and characterization of tumors in this region of the body. As Director of Cardiothoracic Imaging, I work closely with my colleagues across Memorial Sloan Kettering to determine the best way to treat thoracic cancer. My goal is to provide high-quality, effective, and compassionate care to our patients.

I have dedicated my work to improving the detection and diagnosis of thoracic cancers and their complications, such as pulmonary embolisms. My research has focused not only on the detection of tumors but also on better understanding and measuring them. Recently, I have concentrated on characterizing lung cancer tumors with genetic mutations. I am also very interested in computer approaches to studying CT images. With advances in technology, we can automatically detect tumors and tell them apart from normal tissue. I have participated in many clinical trials that use imaging to see how a tumor responds to treatment.
I am particularly passionate about MSK’s Lung Cancer Screening Program, which I helped launch. People who had already had cancer and were screened through this program had a higher rate of lung cancer diagnosis, compared with previously published studies. This suggests that lung cancer screening for these people may help save lives. Findings like these make my work as a radiologist extremely rewarding.
Teaching and mentoring medical students, residents, fellows, and junior faculty has been of great value in my career. As Vice Chair for Education in the Department of Radiology, I focus my clinical, administrative, and academic efforts on the future of oncologic radiology education. It is an area that I am deeply committed to.
