Summary
- I am a board certified gastroenterologist with special interest in chronic pancreatitis and advanced endoscopy (EUS, ERCP).
I trained at Rhode Island hospital. Since then, I was director of pancreatitis clinic at Medical College of Virginia/Virginia Commonwealth University (1993-1999) and became Director of Endoscopy at University of Massachusetts Medical Center (1999-2020). Since then, I have moved to Phoenix, Arizona where I currently am Division Chief of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Medical Director of Digestive Diseases and Endoscopy at Banner University Medical Center Phoenix.
I am very interested in all types of pancreatic disease, advanced endoscopy and clinical research opportunities in both areas.
