Medical Oncologist
About Me
I am a board-certified medical oncologist with expertise in gastrointestinal malignancies, such as colorectal, gastric, and esophageal cancer, and pancreatobiliary cancers. I am a member of MSK’s colorectal, upper GI, and hepatobiliary disease management teams.
After completing oncology and hematology training at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, Cornell Medical Center, I joined the team at MSK Rockville Centre in 2005. My colleagues and I offer a multidisciplinary approach utilizing the most recent advanced treatments in medical oncology and state-of-the-art radiation oncology. We also offer novel chemotherapy, targeted therapies, and monoclonal antibody therapies as well as genetic testing — which can help individualize treatment — closer to home. As part of our research efforts, we are actively enrolling patients in a growing number of clinical trials at MSK Rockville Centre, allowing patients to receive the most advanced care closer to home on Long Island. We offer a warm, intimate environment, where doctors, nurses, and support staff collaborate with local physicians and facilities to take care of the medical, social, nutritional, and psychological needs of our patients.

Insurance
Most major health insurers offer plans that include MSK as one of their in-network providers. If MSK is in-network, it means all our doctors are too. Medicaid and New York State Medicare also provide benefits for care at MSK.
