About Me
As a dedicated physician at NYU Langone, I am committed to providing comprehensive and compassionate care. I specialize in critical care medicine, focusing on managing complex cases in the intensive care unit at NYU Langone’s Tisch Hospital. With years of experience, I have developed a keen understanding of the nuances involved in critical care, ensuring that each patient receives tailored and effective treatment.
Throughout my career, I have been actively involved in translational research, working alongside esteemed colleagues such as Leopoldo N. Segal, MD, MSc and Jun-Chieh J. Tsay, MD. Our collaborative efforts focus on investigating microbial signatures in lung cancer, aiming to uncover new insights that could lead to innovative treatments and improved patient care.
My journey into medicine was inspired by a desire to make a meaningful impact on people's lives. I pursued my medical degree with a focus on critical care, driven by the challenges and rewards of this demanding specialty. At NYU Langone, I am proud to be part of a team that values coordinated care, ensuring that our patients receive the best possible outcomes.
