“To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived—this is to have succeeded.” This quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson has guided my journey in medicine and continues to inspire my commitment to patient care.
I earned my Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree from Columbia University College of Dental Medicine, followed by an internship and residency in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Geisinger Health in Danville, Pennsylvania. During my training, I served a diverse community across two clinics and five hospitals. I was honored with the top patient satisfaction award based on the national Press Ganey healthcare survey.
My clinical interests include dental extractions, implantology, treatment of facial trauma, benign pathology, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, corrective jaw surgery and sleep apnea surgery.
As a surgeon, my goal is to empower patients with the knowledge and guidance they need to make informed decisions about their care—and to deliver optimal results with compassion and precision.
