It is a great privilege to guide my patients through life altering diagnoses, most often cancer. I seek to provide state-of-the-art, individualized treatment plans, with the input of multi-specialty experts (ex: Medical Oncology, Radiation Oncology, Radiology) while employing innovative surgical techniques (such as robotic surgery).
