Summary

  • I am a board-certified neurosurgeon who specializes in the care of brain tumor patients. I perform image-guided brain tumor surgery and stereotactic radiosurgery (Gamma Knife and Novalis). I trained at New York University (neurosurgery residency) and UCSF (neuro-oncology fellowship). I am currently Co-Director of the Gamma Knife Center at Jewish Hospital in Cincinnati. I have devoted my entire career to the compassionate care of brain tumor patients while searching for a cure through clinical trials, translational research, and education of future leaders.
