About Me
I am an endocrine surgeon at Memorial Healthcare System, where I specialize in treating thyroid, parathyroid, and adrenal conditions. I work with patients facing challenges such as thyroid nodules, thyroid cancer, goiter, hyperthyroidism (including Graves’ disease), hyperparathyroidism, adrenal nodules, hyperaldosteronism, pheochromocytoma, adrenal Cushing's Syndrome, and adrenal cancer. My goal is to provide the most effective and minimally invasive treatment options, including robotic and laparoscopic surgery, to help my patients achieve the best possible outcomes.
My decision to pursue a career in medicine was shaped by watching my family members overcome serious health challenges. These experiences sparked my passion for helping others through difficult times, and during my clinical training, I found my calling in surgery. I was drawn to how surgery can have an immediate and meaningful impact on a patient’s life—there’s nothing more rewarding than helping someone feel better and get back to doing what they love. It’s a joy and a privilege to use my surgery skills and expertise to help others.
When working with patients, I prioritize clear communication and ensuring they feel heard and understood. I am committed to fostering a collaborative relationship built on trust and mutual respect, empowering patients to make informed decisions and confidently engage in their care plan.
