I am privileged to serve as the medical director of NYU Langone Virtual Urgent Care and lead a team of compassionate, knowledgeable, and exceptional physicians. By harnessing the excellent technology resources and capabilities provided by NYU Langone, we are able to expand access to healthcare for all patients and treat them from the comfort of their homes, their work, or any other life setting. Our primary focus is to always ensure patients are receiving the highest quality of care.

My life’s journey has taught me to appreciate the diversity of New York City’s patient population and treat everyone equally with the kindness and respect that all patients deserve. I am a first-generation American, born in Brooklyn. I first became interested in emergency medicine as a volunteer in my local emergency department. I completed medical school training at SUNY Downstate Medical Center prior to my residency at NYU Langone.

It was during my residency training that I first recognized the potential of telemedicine to bridge gaps in care. During my involvement in several COVID-19 response initiatives, I spearheaded a pilot program that leveraged telemedicine to allow patients to receive comprehensive discharge instructions. Utilizing this technology allowed patients to have a remote dedicated discharge counselor while allowing staff to care for other critically ill patients in the department. This pilot study was subsequently published in two peer-reviewed articles, which allowed us to share our findings beyond our institution.

In my current role as chief of telemedicine for the emergency department, I have continued to lead telemedicine initiatives to enhance patient care and throughput, improve access to specialty services and augment triage processes. I believe in sharing our observations and initiatives with the greater medical community, and I therefore continue to be active in publishing research articles as well as training the next generation of emergency physicians to navigate the complexities of providing virtual care. Our department fosters a culture of adaptability, innovation, and clinical excellence. I am proud to be part of the leadership team that operates at the intersection of innovation and superb emergency medicine care and remain dedicated to advancing healthcare innovation.
