My patient care philosophy is to connect with each patient on a level that enables me to provide the highest level of personalized treatment. Every patient is unique. I take the time to listen carefully, so I can thoroughly understand their condition and lifestyle. With this understanding, together, we create a tailored plan that best suits their needs.

 

I am a gastroenterologist at St Luke’s University Health Network. I joined St. Luke’s Gastroenterology after completing the St. Luke’s Gastroenterology Fellowship, a three-year program. I have a special interest in:

  • Colon cancer screening
  • Nutrition 
  • Liver disorders, including cirrhosis
  • Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
  • Treatment of Barrett’s esophagus
  • Celiac disease
  • Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
  • Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)

I am an active member of the American College of Gastroenterology, American Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy and Pennsylvania Society of Gastroenterology. I have published and presented my research findings at national academic gastroenterology conferences. Teaching medical students, residents and fellows is a strong passion of mine.

 

Outside work, I enjoy spending time with my family, including my dogs. I enjoy hiking, playing basketball, cooking and traveling.

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.
