About Me
As an endocrinologist at NYU Langone, I provide compassionate, patient-centered care. My medical philosophy is deeply influenced by the belief that “laughter is the best medicine” and, while I take my patients’ concerns seriously, I strive to create a welcoming and comfortable environment for all my patients. I take immense joy in helping individuals manage their health and well-being, and I am committed to being accessible and supportive throughout their healthcare journeys.
I specialize in treating a variety of endocrine disorders. My patients often commend me for my prompt responses and personable approach, crucial in fostering strong doctor-patient relationships. Although I am not currently involved in research, my previous work in thyroid research has enriched my understanding and approach to managing endocrine disorders. My dedication to patient care extends beyond the clinic, as I aim to ensure a seamless and coordinated experience for all my patients at NYU Langone.
My journey into medicine was inspired by my grandfather, a psychiatrist from Vienna, Austria, and further fueled by my admiration for Dr. Oliver Sacks (I initially had intended to become a neurologist). These influences, combined with my passion for creativity and insight, and a particularly rewarding endocrinology rotation while in medical school, led me to pursue a career in endocrinology. My educational background and experiences have shaped my approach to medicine. I am proud to be part of the NYU Langone team, where I collaborate with colleagues to provide comprehensive care.
