As an otolaryngologist at the Institute for Specialized Surgery, I specialize in general otolaryngology with a focus on functional and cosmetic nasal surgery. My extensive training includes a fellowship in facial plastics, which has equipped me with the skills to perform both medical and surgical interventions effectively. My philosophy centers on the importance of patient engagement and fostering strong partnerships to ensure the best possible outcomes.

With over 20 years of experience in the field, I have honed my expertise in managing conditions such as chronic sinusitis, nasal obstructions, and other ear, nose, throat, and mouth (ENT)-related issues. My commitment to staying updated with the latest advances in otolaryngology ensures that my patients receive the highest standard of care.

Throughout my career, I have been actively involved in teaching and mentoring medical residents, particularly during my initial years at Manhattan Eye, Ear, & Throat Hospital. My practice in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, has allowed me to serve a diverse community, and I take pride in the close collaboration between our specialists and primary care physicians. This teamwork is crucial to providing comprehensive and coordinated care, which is a hallmark of the ISS.

My journey into medicine began during my medical school rotations, where I discovered my passion for otolaryngology. The opportunity to treat a diverse patient population and address both medical and surgical needs drew me to this field. Inspired by the dynamic nature of the operating room and the advances in ENT care, I am dedicated to making a positive impact on my patients’ lives.
