Head & Neck Cancer
I am passionate about delivering the best care for patients with cancers of the head and neck through a multidisciplinary team approach. It is a privilege to guide patients and their loved ones through surgery and post-operative treatment. I hope to contribute to the legacy of renowned care at Temple and Fox Chase.
My research interests focus on improving the lives of patients requiring complex head and neck reconstruction. By studying clinical outcomes and healthcare delivery, I can also ensure that we are providing the best care possible. I also find it very important to be involved in medical education to teach the next generation of medical students, residents, and surgeons.
