When I was young, I was fascinated by the way the body works. My curiosity and my interest in science led me to pursue a career in medicine. By the time I started medical school, I knew I wanted to be a surgeon.

Emergency surgery appeals to me because I enjoy thinking on my feet. No two emergencies are exactly the same, and it is satisfying to be able to tailor treatment to each patient to help them return to their everyday lives.

As an acute care surgeon, I treat patients who come to the emergency department with a variety of diseases. I remove gallbladders, repair hernias, and manage appendicitis, bowel obstruction, abscesses, and necrotizing fasciitis, a dangerous bacterial infection.

I also care for patients who have experienced blunt injuries, which may be caused by a car accident, a fall, or other trauma. In addition, I manage penetrating injuries, such as gunshot or stab wounds. Traumatic injuries can change people’s lives in an instant. I pride myself on not only managing patients’ injuries but also assisting them with their recovery.

In addition to performing emergency surgery, I offer elective procedures, including removing soft tissue masses and the gallbladder. I see patients who need a second opinion as well as those who require revision surgery. I perform abdominal wall reconstruction for patients who have complex hernias, as well as those whose hernia repairs have failed. Additionally, I perform procedures on patients who are considered high-risk because they have multiple health conditions, such as cancer or heart disease, or are waiting for a transplant.

It can be stressful to find out that you need surgery. I care for my patients and their families with compassion. I ensure that they understand their treatment options as well as the risks and benefits. It is rewarding to help people recover from a condition or injury.

I conduct research focused on the quality of trauma care and advanced mechanical ventilation. During the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, I opened one of the first COVID-19 intensive care units in the region, at Stony Brook University Hospital. My colleagues and I have published multiple papers on COVID-19 treatment, and we are studying better ways to measure oxygen levels in people who have COVID-19.

In 2021, I was honored to receive the Healthcare Hero award. I was selected by Suffolk County legislator Kara Hahn for providing exceptional care to patients with COVID-19.
