About Me
As a musculoskeletal interventional radiologist at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to providing care that emphasizes both precision and compassion to help patients regain their mobility and quality of life. I specialize in managing conditions such as sports-related injuries, arthritis, and tumors of the bones, joints, and spine.
With more than a decade of experience, I have honed my skills in using advanced imaging techniques like computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and ultrasound for accurate diagnosis. My expertise extends to performing ultrasound- and CT-guided joint injections, spine injections, and biopsies of soft tissue and bone tumors. Additionally, I treat patients with benign and malignant musculoskeletal tumors using innovative ablation techniques, including chemical ablation, radiofrequency ablation, and cryoablation.
Throughout my career, I have focused on proactive healthcare engagement and collaborative care. I work closely with sarcoma and orthopedic surgeons to develop comprehensive, patient–provider treatment plans. My research interests, which include hip joint diseases, outcomes related to orthopedic surgery, and enhancing patient recovery following minimally invasive interventions, allow me to continually improve patient care and explore new solutions for challenging musculoskeletal conditions.
My journey into medicine was inspired by my background as a competitive athlete, which gave me a unique understanding of how musculoskeletal diseases can impact a person's life. I pursued my medical degree with a focus on interventional radiology to combine my love for sports with my desire to help others. My affiliation with NYU Langone ensures that my patients receive the highest standard of coordinated care.
