I’ve been a surgeon since 1984 and have practiced surgery in New Jersey and Pennsylvania for over 15 years. As a general surgeon, I have extensive experience in the management of a variety of cancers involving the thyroid, breast, skin, colon and rectum; simple and complex hernia surgery; gallbladder surgery; and advanced laparoscopic, endoscopic and open abdominal procedures.
I’ve been the director of wound care at multiple facilities including St. Luke’s Warren Campus since 2012. I especially enjoy advanced wound care and hyperbaric oxygen treatment.
I earned my medical degree at Gandhi Medical College and completed an internship at Hamidia Hospital Gandhi Medical College and residencies at Lehigh Valley Hospital and Easton Hospital.
I am a board certified general surgeon and a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons and Royal College of Surgeons in England and Ireland. I have published multiple articles in peer reviewed Journals.
I’ve been actively involved in the teaching and training of surgical and family practice residents as well as medical students from Drexel and Philadelphia College of Medicine as well as physician assistant students.
The Patient Satisfaction Rating is an average of all responses to the care provider related questions from our nationally recognized Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. Patients that are treated in outpatient or hospital environments may receive different surveys, and the volume of responses will vary by question.
Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score.
The comments are submitted by patients and reflect their views and opinions. The comments are not endorsed by and do not necessarily reflect the views of St. Luke’s University Health Network.
