Cardiology | Nuclear CardiologyExpertise
Cardiology | Cardiovascular Disease | HypertensionAs board certified cardiologist and nuclear cardiologist, I like to have my patients on the least amount of medication that is feasible. I try to take care of patients as if they were family members.
I earned my medical degree at the University of Michigan School of Medicine, completed a residency at Montefiore Medical Center and a fellowship at North Shore University Hospital in New York. I have special interest and skills in pacemaker and defibrillator implants and I am a fellow of the American College of Cardiology.
Outside of work, I bike on Sundays (with good weather), play racquet sports and enjoy teasing my friends and family.
