Summary

• "Knowing the person who has a disease is as important as knowing what sort of disease a person has."
  
  I am a board-certified neurologist, specializing in multiple sclerosis (MS) and demyelinating diseases. After graduating from medical school in Athens, Greece, I went to Johns Hopkins in Baltimore to receive training in neuroimmunology and MS research. After a productive two years, I moved to New York to complete my neurology residency and fellowship training in MS and demyelinating diseases at the Mount Sinai Hospital, where I was nominated Chief Resident. After that, I stayed on as an attending taking care of patients with MS, overseeing the MS resident clinic and conducting cutting-edge research in my own lab.
  
  My goal as a clinician is to combine concepts of personalized medical management with evidence-based clinical decision making to maximize the treatment benefit for each patient.
