Summary

  • My areas of expertise are in bone and soft tissue pathology and cytopathology. Bone and soft tissue pathology includes primary neoplasms, both benign and malignant, and metastatic malignancies, as well as other non-neoplastic conditions. I am currently practicing as a surgical and cytopathologist signing out cases in most areas of surgical pathology including bone and soft tissue pathology and all areas of cytopathology.
