About Me

Having great rapport with patients is important to establishing a relationship with them, which facilitates better communication between patient and physician. I focus on allowing patients to express their concerns to better develop an individualized treatment plan. I also encourage patients to keep an open mind when it comes to considering alternative treatment methods such as massage, acupuncture, proper nutrition and supplements as part of their treatment.

Since I’ve studied at an Osteopathic medical school, I have training in hands-on musculoskeletal adjustments and muscle relaxation techniques that I can offer to patients as an adjunct to their regimen, for such things as headache, neck and back aches and even swelling in extremities. 

I earned my medical degree at the University of Medicine & Dentistry of New Jersey, completed an internship and residency at Christ Hospital and a fellowship at St. Luke’s University Hospital in Bethlehem.

Outside of work, I enjoy traveling to different cities and states across the country, and exploring great places to eat.
