From an early age, I've been drawn to the power of science in aiding others. My father, a dedicated doctor, instilled in me the desire to walk in his footsteps. As a neurosurgeon, I encounter individuals grappling with a diverse range of spinal disorders. Building connections with my patients and playing a role in their recovery journey is a privilege I deeply value.

The field of neurosurgery is in a dynamic state of progress, witnessing a surge in diagnostic capabilities and surgical techniques, leading to enhanced outcomes for patients. I consider myself fortunate to be amidst these exhilarating advancements. My expertise lies in the realm of minimally invasive procedures, facilitating swift recovery and an early return home for my patients. We leverage state-of-the-art technology to address the entire spectrum of spinal disorders.
In my capacity as the director of the Spine Tumor Program within the Brain and Spine Tumor Center at Perlmutter Cancer Center, I extend specialized care to patients grappling with an array of spinal neoplasms, encompassing metastatic tumors, rare primary bone tumors, and tumors of the nerves and spinal cord. Each necessitates a tailored treatment approach.
