I chose a career in medicine because I enjoy the intersection of science and helping people. I decided to specialize in pulmonary medicine because I was fascinated by the complex mechanics of the lungs and how they affect the rest of the body. As a pulmonologist, I have the opportunity to provide care for patients in the hospital who are extremely ill, including those in the intensive care unit.

I treat patients with a variety of chronic lung diseases, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. I also spend a significant amount of time evaluating patients with known or suspected lung cancer. I perform advanced diagnostic pulmonary procedures, including endobronchial ultrasound and electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy.

My team and I focus on providing the best possible care. I collaborate with a group of physicians who specialize in all aspects of pulmonary care, so we can easily and quickly provide the most up-to-date treatments and expert consultation if needed. I thoroughly communicate with all of my patients to help them better understand their condition and treatment options.

I am a member of the American Thoracic Society. Also, I am proud to be a fellow of the American College of Physicians, the major society of internal medicine, as well as a fellow of the American College of Chest Physicians and the American Board of Sleep Medicine, two of the major subspecialty societies.
