“My journey into medicine began with a personal experience. I witnessed firsthand how my brother battled cancer at a time when treatment options were few and side effects severe. His struggle and eventual triumph inspired me to dedicate my life to finding better ways.

Over the years, I’ve worked in research labs and pharmaceutical companies in my efforts to advance many fields of medicine and help conquer cancer. Today, as a physician, I bring what I’ve learned to each patient I treat. My approach combines the results of cutting-edge research with personalized care to develop a custom treatment plan that considers the whole person and not just the disease.

Though the path ahead may be challenging, you will never walk it alone. I’ll be there for you every step of the way. Together, we will make lemonade out of lemons!”
