I am also privileged to practice in Neurological Surgery at Weill Cornell Medicine and NewYork-Presbyterian.

Nothing makes my day more than seeing patients a few weeks after surgery and getting a big hug and smile from them and their families for a job well done. My whole office staff is centered on the patient experience to provide professional, rapid responses to any questions in a courteous and caring manner.īehind the scenes, I have dedicated my career to pursuing minimally invasive operative techniques to make neurosurgical procedures easier on my patients so they recover more rapidly and can return quickly to their normal lives. I try to make the whole experience pleasant and positive, and to create a calm and soothing environment for my patients. I am fully aware that the concept of having to undergo a neurosurgical operation, a “brain surgery,” is a daunting and terrifying prospect to a patient. I view patient care as a privilege that requires complete dedication to patient well-being. Neurosurgery has always been more of a passion than a profession for me.
