About Me
As a board-certified physiatrist at NYU Langone’s Rusk Rehabilitation, my passion for patient care fuels my work. I strongly believe in the power of open dialogue and a supportive environment to foster successful rehabilitation outcomes and am committed to treating every individual with the utmost respect and compassion.
My clinical specialty lies in orthopedic and spinal cord injury rehabilitation. As director of Orthopedic and Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation, I am dedicated to creating and refining current treatment guidelines and leading a team that delivers comprehensive, personalized rehabilitation programs. My primary goal is to help patients regain function and mobility, improve their well-being, and empower them to return to their daily activities with confidence and independence.
Throughout my career, I have been committed to proactive engagement in healthcare, focusing on optimizing rehabilitation outcomes and advancing the field of physical medicine and rehabilitation. This commitment extends to my role as an assistant professor at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, where I have the privilege of educating and mentoring the next generation of leaders in rehabilitation medicine.
