About Me
As chairman of radiology at Long Island Community Hospital, part of NYU Langone, I am dedicated to providing comprehensive and compassionate care to our patients. Radiology captivates me because it plays a crucial role in diagnosing and treating nearly every patient who comes through our doors. This specialty challenges me to stay current and knowledgeable across all medical and surgical fields, ensuring that I can offer the best possible service to our staff and care to our patients.
With board certifications in both radiology and nuclear medicine, I bring a wealth of expertise to my role. By staying at the forefront of radiologic advances, I aim to provide patients with the most effective and least invasive diagnostic options available. My work involves using advanced imaging modalities to diagnose and monitor a wide range of conditions, including cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and other chronic illnesses as well as acute disease processes seen in patients in our emergency room.
Throughout my extensive career, my commitment to precision and accuracy in diagnostics is driven by the profound impact that timely and accurate imaging can have on patient outcomes. I have focused on leveraging cutting-edge technology to enhance patient care and developing strong professional relationships with our referring staff. This relationship enables me to work closely with my colleagues as a team to provide accurate and timely diagnosis for our patients.
My journey into the field of radiology began with a deep-seated interest in the intersection of technology and medicine. Inspired by the potential to make a significant difference in patient care through imaging, I pursued my medical degree and specialized training in radiology and nuclear medicine. Joining NYU Langone has allowed me to collaborate with a diverse team, ensuring that our patients receive coordinated care.
