Summary

  • I am a urologic oncologist at MedStar Washington Hospital Center. As a urologic oncologist, I specialize in the treatment of urologic malignancies including bladder, kidney, prostate, testicular, and upper tract urothelial cancer through the use of minimally invasive surgical techniques, such as endoscopic, laparoscopic, or robotic technologies, and when necessary open surgery. I also treats upper urinary tract obstruction/strictures, complex stone disease, benign prostatic hyperplasia, patients who require upper urinary tract reconstruction or urinary diversion, and other urologic conditions.

    I received his medical degree from the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. I then joined Baylor College of Medicine for an internship in general surgery and a residency in urology. I completed a Society of Urologic Oncology (SUO) accredited two-year fellowship in urologic oncology at The Combined Harvard Program in Urologic Oncology at Massachusetts General Hospital and Brigham and Women’s Hospital. I have also received a master’s of science in bioethics from Union Graduate College in association with Mount Sinai School of Medicine Center and have completed a master’s in public health during his time in Boston at the Harvard TS Chan School of Public Health.

    I take special interest in the treatment of complex urologic tumors and conditions, even those that involve multiple organs. My research interests include cancer outcomes, population health, quality improvement in bladder cancer and other urologic malignancies, and the burden and financial associated with cancer care.

    I am a member of the American Urological Association (AUA), the Society of Urologic Oncology (SUO), and the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), and I have had the honor of being inducted into the Alpha Omega Alpha (AOA) Medical Honor Society.

    When not performing clinical responsibilities or in research, I am spending time with my wife and three children.
