As a pediatric radiologist, I am particularly interested in chest and abdominal X-rays, treating patients using radiology (nuclear medicine) and active imaging (fluoroscopy). I have always enjoyed working with children and their parents and caregivers to help keep them healthy. I continually re-evaluate whether the care we are providing is the best for each patient or whether there are different steps we can take to improve their outcome. I strive to provide the highest-quality imaging for patients.
When I am not at work, I enjoy birdwatching and spending time outdoors with my family.
