About Me
As an emergency medicine physician at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to providing immediate and comprehensive care to all patients who come through our doors. I believe that every encounter in the emergency department is unique and critical, as it represents the patient's emergency. This philosophy drives my commitment to delivering high-quality, compassionate care in the most urgent situations.
I specialize in emergency medicine, a field that allows me to combine practical thinking with hands-on skills and decisive action. With over a decade of experience, I have treated a wide range of conditions, from minor injuries to life-threatening emergencies. My extensive training and experience enable me to manage diverse medical situations effectively, ensuring that each patient receives the best possible care.
Throughout my career, I have focused on the dynamic and fast-paced nature of emergency medicine. I thrive on the challenges it presents and the opportunity to make a significant impact on patients' lives in critical moments. My work in the emergency department encompasses treating all age groups and a variety of conditions, ensuring that anyone in need of urgent care receives prompt and effective treatment.
My journey into medicine began with a deep-seated desire to help others and make a difference in their lives. The intensity and immediacy of emergency medicine drew me to this specialty, where I can combine my passion for practical problem-solving with my dedication to patient care. My education and training have equipped me with the skills and knowledge necessary to excel in this demanding field, and I am proud to be part of the exceptional team at NYU Langone, where we prioritize coordinated and seamless care for our patients.
