As a dedicated breast imager at NYU Langone, I am committed to the early detection and comprehensive management of breast cancer. My goal is to identify cancer at its earliest stages to ensure the best possible outcomes for my patients. I am deeply inspired by the strength and resilience of those I treat and find immense fulfillment in providing both critical diagnoses and reassurance.

I specialize in breast imaging and diagnostics, including conditions such as breast pain, palpable lumps, and nipple discharge. With extensive training in ultrasound-guided, stereotactic-guided, and MRI-guided biopsies, I strive to make my patients as comfortable as possible during these procedures. My approach is patient–centered, ensuring that I address any questions and concerns throughout the diagnostic process. My experience in residency and fellowship at NYU, and as an attending physician, has honed my ability to provide precise and compassionate care.

My work involves not only diagnosing and managing breast conditions but also fostering strong partnerships with my patients to ensure a positive and supportive experience. Being part of NYU Langone allows me to collaborate with a team, providing coordinated and seamless care for my patients.

My journey into medicine was inspired by a personal connection to breast cancer, having seen its impact on loved ones. This experience fueled my passion for breast imaging and my commitment to early detection and patient care. I completed my medical education and specialized training with a focus on breast imaging, driven by the desire to make a meaningful difference in the lives of my patients. At NYU Langone, I am proud to be part of a team that prioritizes patient wellbeing and innovative care.
