About Me
I'm a radiologist that specializes in breast imaging. Being able to work at the Stefanie Spielman Comprehensive Breast Center is an honor as we have access to all the latest technologies and research. We are a National Cancer Institute-designated center — the only one in Ohio with only 51 centers like us in the United States — meaning that everyone that works here specializes in only breast health. It's an honor to get to work with our staff and physicians as they are not only some of the best and brightest in the field but truly the most empathetic and kindest people. That is what our patients want and deserve on their side when having to deal with the anxiety and fear that sometimes occurs in breast imaging.
The mission of the Spielman Center resonates with me as a physician. I believe strongly in empathetic care and always treating my patients as though they are family. Each patient is unique and because of that the care they receive should be as specialized as they are!
Some other aspects of my job I enjoy are improving processes for patient care, giving lectures and doing interviews to help educate colleagues and the public about breast health and imaging, and working with the specialized team of caregivers here to ensure the best care for our patients.
