Summary

  • I am a board-certified Nuclear Radiologist, with clinical training and interest in hybrid imaging, including PET-CT, PET-MR, SPECT-CT. While the predominant focus of these modalities is on oncologic imaging, my practice includes the entire gamut of general nuclear medicine and nuclear cardiology as well.

    After my fellowship, I worked in both private and academic practices. This experience has allowed me to continually focus on a balance between the best patient care in an efficient, timely manner, as well as comprehensive training for our trainees/future colleagues.
