General Info

As a vascular surgeon, I enjoy the long-term care relationship that I have with vascular patients. I specialize in aortic and lower extremity interventions, including surgery and minimally invasive techniques, and always make sure I explain complex vascular diseases and procedures in a way that makes sense to my patient 'm the director of vascular research at the Ohio State College of Medicine. I have a breadth of experience that has allowed me to approach complex vascular problems in new ways. I have a longstanding research interest in developing novel stents to treat new surgical conditions. To date, my laboratory has created retrievable stents to treat traumatic bleeding, improve donor organ recovery for transplantation, modeling of aortic aneurysms and provide focused delivery of drugs. In addition, it has been a pleasure to pass some of my knowledge onto medical students in both clinical and research environment hen I'm not at work, I enjoy cooking, gardening, being outdoors and spending time with my family.
