As an obstetrician-gynecologist at NYU Langone Health, I am dedicated to providing comprehensive and compassionate care to women at all stages of life. My job is split between direct patient care, teaching medical students and residents, and quality improvement work to improve clinical care and patient safety for a diverse patient population. My approach emphasizes meticulous practice and patient safety, relying on evidence-based medicine and ensuring that each individual receives the highest standard of care.

I specialize in high-risk obstetrics, operative vaginal deliveries, and emergency gynecologic care. My expertise also includes minimally invasive gynecology and family planning procedures. I specialize in management of the occiput posterior fetus as well as breech presentations, from trials of external cephalic versions to delivery of the breech fetus. My commitment is to offer equitable care to a diverse patient population, regardless of age, race, ethnicity, gender, or religion.

My extensive training in the Bronx has equipped me with a deep understanding of managing medically complicated scenarios. The rigorous academic environment and strong collegiality among faculty and trainees have honed my skills in handling complex cases. I am passionate about continuously improving the medical environment and advocating for patient safety and quality care.

My journey into medicine began with a lifelong desire to become a doctor, with a particular interest in women’s health. My medical approach was bolstered by extensive work in Africa, which has helped immensely in developing my clinical skills. The combination of medical and surgical opportunities in obstetrics and gynecology appealed to me, allowing me to provide both continuity of care and acute/emergent care. My career has been dedicated to improving healthcare for medically and psychosocially complex populations, as well as addressing disparities and inequities in healthcare, rising cesarean rates, and maternal morbidity and mortality. My roles as co-chair of the Gold Humanism Chapter and the Obstetric Quality Improvement Committee at NYU Langone reflect my dedication to enhancing patient experiences and outcomes.
