General Info

As a dual trained open vascular and endovascular neurosurgeon at St Luke’s University Health Network, I often see patients being frightened by their diagnosis. It is my job to help educate them regardingtheir diagnosis and treatment options. Often there is not a single right answer for their treatment and we work together to find the right treatment for the individual. While I treat various intracranial and spinal pathologies, the primary focus of my practice is dedicated to treating disorders of the blood vessels in the brain and spine. As such, I care for and perform surgery on individuals with potentially devastating diseases including aneurysms and vascular malformations. I completed my medical school at New York University School of Medicine and subsequently completed my residency and fellowship at The Ohio State University. I chose my specialty for the opportunity to give individuals the best possibility of a good outcome. Whether it is treating an aneurysm before a life changing rupture or caring for the unfortunate stricken by cerebral hemorrhage my goal is to give individuals the best opportunity for a healthy and long life. When not at work I enjoy spending time with my family.
