Summary
- I am a Board Certified Gastroenterologist practicing in the Plano and Dallas, TX areas.
I am fellowship trained in multiple advanced endoscopy procedures such as ERCP, Endoscopic Ultrasound, Fine Needle Aspiration, Cholangioscopy, and others. It is a particular point of enthusiasm for me to be working with other advanced endoscopists in our medical group, in order to increase our availability for these complex procedures and better serve our patients in a timely manner.
I see a consultation as an opportunity to meet a new patient and provide care as part of a team with the patient’s referring physician. It is important to me to keep referring providers apprised of developments with their patients, and I am always happy to discuss patient management at any point in time.
Thank you for taking the time to read my profile, and please feel free to contact me if I may be of any assistance.
