Summary
- I am a board certified vascular surgeon specializing in all aspects of vascular surgery, including treatment of aortic aneurysms, carotid disease, thoracic outlet syndrome and lower extremity arterial disease. My practice includes endovascular procedures, as well as other minimally invasive techniques.
My NIH-funded research program focuses on the investigation of the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying vascular disease with the goal of identifying new therapeutic targets for the treatment of vascular diseases. I have a longstanding history as an investigator on industry sponsored clinical trials.
