Professional History

Currently, he serves as an overnight and emergency attending radiologist, and as the Director of Radiology Education for rotating radiology residents.
Approach to Care
Serving children, and the parents of children, is a privilege. As a father I understand that children can be our greatest joy and greatest vulnerability. They can be complex, funny, heartbreaking, uplifting, and all of these things at once - and my goal as a physician is to let them be all of those things. I am here to help. That's why I'm a doctor, and why I'm here.
