About Me
I became a doctor to help people and make a lasting and positive impact on their lives and health. I chose to specialize in gastroenterology because it enables me to develop a long-term relationship with each of the people I care for.
Gastroenterology also appealed to me because it involves a variety of conditions and requires a mixture of medical treatments and endoscopic procedures. This allows me to combine my interpersonal, clinical, and endoscopic skills to heal my patients.
At NYU Langone at Great Neck Medical, I treat people who have a range of gastrointestinal disorders, including gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), Barrett’s esophagus, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), celiac disease, and liver disease. I also provide screening for colorectal cancer. I use the most advanced screening and diagnostic tools, including esophagogastroduodenoscopy, colonoscopy, and video capsule endoscopy.
Building trusting relationships with my patients is a critical aspect of the care I provide. I listen to each person and tailor treatment to their needs. This enables us to work together to improve not only the condition but the person’s overall health and wellbeing.
I am proud to have been named internal medicine Attending of the Year at NYU Langone Hospital—Long Island in 2013, 2016, 2017, and 2018.
