Biography
As a board-certified pulmonary, palliative and critical care physician, I specialize in treating patients with advanced lung diseases. I also serve as director of the novel Pulmonary Palliative Clinic within The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center Richard M. Ross Heart Hospital, a program I helped launch. My team and I help patients and their loved ones navigate their serious illnesses and use specialty palliative training and education to provide symptom management with the goal of improving quality of life.
My patients can expect a personalized approach tailored to their unique needs and rely on me for support throughout their lung health care journey. I am passionate about doing all I can to help make each patient’s experience as smooth as possible.
