Biography

As a surgeon, I often meet patients and their families at the lowest points of their entire lives, and have the opportunity to have a profound impact on their comfort, well-being and quality of life. I’m committed to establishing meaningful relationships with patients and their families and encouraging them to take part in the decision-making process because I want to provide the best care possible. I specialize in all aspects of adult cardiac surgery, including coronary bypass, valve repair and replacement, arrhythmia surgery, and both heart and lung transplantation.

Both my wife and I grew up in Columbus and I attended The Ohio State University for graduate school and medical school. The collegiality and universal commitment to excellence in patient care, research and education makes Ohio State a truly exceptional place.

When I’m not at work, I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, and following collegiate and professional sports.
