Get to Know Me

As a hospitalist, I care for patients who are hospitalized at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), where I diagnose and treat a variety of illnesses, such as heart disease, kidney disease, infections, and pain. I also manage medical conditions related to cancer and the side effects of cancer therapy.

I recognize that being hospitalized is an especially stressful time for patients and family members. One of the most important aspects of my job is communicating effectively, in a patient-centered manner, to ensure that patients understand and agree with the treatment plan that we collaboratively decide to pursue. Our team works closely with a patient’s primary oncologist and consultant services to provide cohesive and comprehensive care.

In addition to my clinical work, I teach and supervise medical residents training at MSK. Outside of my medical practice, I enjoy traveling, skiing, and interior design.

What I Do at MSK

I'm a hospitalist, which is a doctor with special training in caring for people in the hospital.
