Personal Statement

I am a board-certified radiation oncologist working in clinical medicine with an interest in clinical trials and improving the quality of life for people with cancer.

I specialize in caring for people with cancer with a specific focus on hematologic malignancies (lymphoma, leukemia, multiple myeloma)  genitourinary malignancies (prostate, bladder, kidney) and central nervous system ( brain, spine) tumors, both benign and malignant. I  strive to embrace each patient’s needs both medically and emotionally. My goal is to deliver compassionate care,  using state of the art radiotherapy in a multidisciplinary setting. I truly enjoy taking time with my patients and their families so they fully understand their diagnosis and our treatment recommendations.

I have a special interest in utilizing cutting-edge technology, such as Image Guided Radiotherapy (IGRT), Adaptive Radiotherapy (ART), Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) and Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) in order to minimize treatment related toxicity.
