I am an Attending Vascular Surgeon. I treat people with diseases of the arteries and veins. I specialize in carotid and aortic surgery; as well as procedures for leg arterial disease. I have extensive experience in treating conditions with minimal invasive or endovascular procedures such as angioplasty, stents/stent-graft, Silverhawk atherectomy, etc. I perform dialysis access procedures for patients with renal failure and varicose vein surgery including a large number of laser vein ablation procedures. I have a broad experience in treating wounds since I did research on wound healing during my training.

I am a member of The Society for Vascular Surgery, The Eastern Vascular Society, The Peripheral Vascular Surgery Society and The Society for Vascular Technology. I am also a qualified Registered Vascular Technologist (RVT), which means I can perform and interpret non-invasive tests.
