About Me
My fascination with biological sciences and the opportunity to make a difference in people’s lives led me to a career in medicine. The rewarding nature of caring for children combined with the exciting, dynamic challenges of emergency medicine solidified my decision to specialize in pediatric emergency medicine. As a pediatric emergency medicine physician at NYU Langone Hospital—Long Island, I strive to provide the best care for children and their families during times of greatest need.
My expertise lies in evidence-based treatment of a variety of medical conditions. These range from common newborn complaints to chronic complex conditions such as sickle cell anemia, inflammatory bowel disease, and cancer. I also manage acute respiratory distress, common infections, sepsis, and pediatric trauma. My experience with complex suture repair, splinting, and procedural sedation in the emergency department has well equipped me to handle a wide range of pediatric emergencies.
I am committed to providing comprehensive care to my patients, and to keeping families informed and updated during their visit to the emergency department. Working in the Department of Emergency Medicine at NYU Langone allows me to collaborate with a diverse team of top-notch pediatric specialists, ensuring the best possible acute care for children on Long Island. The most fulfilling aspect of my job is providing care that not only ensures the child’s wellbeing, but also brings comfort and reassurance to their family.
