About Me
As a cardiologist at NYU Langone, I provide comprehensive, patient-centered care. My passion for cardiology comes from the acute, complex, and dynamic nature of cardiovascular diseases. This interest aligns with my hobbies as an avid helicopter pilot, scuba diver, and motorcycle enthusiast, where rapid feedback and complex decision-making skills are essential—skills integral to my cardiology practice. I take great satisfaction in educating students from the NYU Grossman School of Medicine and keeping current with the latest advancements in my field.
I specialize in all aspects of general cardiology, focusing on atrial fibrillation and treating and preventing atherosclerotic heart disease. I have been privileged to serve a diverse patient population, primarily from Lower Manhattan, the Financial District, Battery Park City, and the Lower East Side. My credentials include graduating magna cum laude from Rutgers University and finishing in the top 3 percent of my class at NYU Grossman School of Medicine. I completed my internal medicine training at Bellevue Hospital and cardiology training at Montefiore Hospital.
Throughout my career, I have been committed to proactive healthcare engagement. As the founding and current medical director of NYU Langone at Trinity, I have overseen its growth from a seven-member multispecialty group to a 90-physician center that offers a broad spectrum of medical specialties. I also direct the Cardiac Noninvasive Department, which performs echocardiography, stress testing, prolonged cardiac monitoring, and general cardiology. My affiliation with NYU Langone ensures seamless transitions for tertiary referrals, thanks to our close collaboration with the Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery.
My conservative approach to cardiovascular disease and dedication to spending ample time with each patient has resulted in high patient satisfaction. I am honored to have received the Press Ganey Award as the #1 physician at NYU Langone at Trinity for patient satisfaction in 2023 and the #1 ranking at the NYU Langone Cardiology Associates office in 2024.
