I am a board certified Internist and Geriatrician. I provide outpatient geriatric consultative and primary care at Northwestern's geriatrics clinic at Galter Pavilion, and home-based primary geriatrics care in central Chicago. My clinical interests are in preventive medicine and high-quality, individualized primary care of older adults. I am also passionate about medical education.
