Summary

I am a seasoned, highly trained Hematologist/Oncologist and Palliative Care professional who has worked in private practice (single specialty and multi-specialty groups) and in academic institutions. I employ state-of-the-art therapy in a compassionate, patient-centered approach. I spend time with my patients and value them as individuals. My patients constantly teach me to be a better caregiver and a better person. Medicine is an art as well as a science. I have now returned home to NYS.
