About Me
I have always been passionate about medicine and the chance to help and heal others. I love working with children, adolescents, and young adults. As a pediatric hematologist–oncologist, I have the opportunity to build long-term therapeutic relationships with children and their families as I guide them through all the stages and phases of illness and recovery. In addition, I value contributing to the science and research that is rapidly advancing the field, offering tremendous hope with new treatments and improved outcomes.
I see patients from birth through young adulthood who have a variety of benign or noncancerous hematologic conditions, including sickle cell disease, thalassemia, anemias, neutropenia, platelet disorders, and bleeding and clotting disorders. I also manage a wide array of pediatric cancers, including leukemias, lymphomas, brain tumors, and solid tumors, such as neuroblastoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, Wilms tumor, and hepatoblastoma.
At NYU Langone Cancer Center for Kids—Mineola, I offer a personalized care program in a warm and compassionate environment. My philosophy of care is to partner with my patients and their families to provide the best possible treatment, while meeting their medical, emotional, and cultural needs.
When needed, I perform lumbar punctures and bone marrow biopsies and aspirations to diagnose and monitor cancers during treatment. All procedures are performed in our outpatient clinic, with the support of a pediatric anesthesiologist and a music therapist.
I believe in a team-based approach to care and work closely with my colleagues, including physicians, nurses, child life specialists, psychologists, and social workers, to address the diverse needs of patients and their families and achieve the best possible outcomes. I take extra steps to minimize time spent in the hospital and optimize outpatient care as I believe children heal and thrive best in their own home environment.
