I am a fellowship trained Interventional Pulmonologist and Critical Care specialist with a passion for the field. I practice a mix of Interventional Pulmonology, General Pulmonology and Critical Care with focus on Interventional Pulmonology. I provide advanced diagnostic as well as cutting edge bronchoscopic therapeutic modalities for early diagnosis and palliation in advanced cases of malignant and benign airway diseases. I am actively involved in research focused on minimally invasive diagnostic options for patients with lung cancer and therapeutic bronchoscopic techniques for benign central airway obstruction.
