Biography
I am a board-certified pathologist at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. I specialize in diagnosing and evaluating a wide range of diseases through the examination of tissues, cells, and bodily fluids, with particular expertise in Cytology (fine needle aspiration for thyroid, salivary glands et al), Gynecological pathology, such as vulva, cervix, uterine and ovarian diseases.
My patients and clinical colleagues can rely on me for high quality, precise diagnostic insights and collaborative communication in every case. I work closely with a multidisciplinary team to ensure that each diagnosis supports a personalized and effective treatment plan tailored to the patient’s unique condition and needs.
In addition to my clinical responsibilities, I am passionate about advancing the science of pathology through education and research. I serve as a professor of Pathology at The Ohio State University College of Medicine, where I contribute to the training and mentorship of future physicians and specialists.
