I have an additional interest in epilepsy and women and have created specialty pregnancy clinics for patients who are pregnant with epilepsy. I also have an interest in Neuromodulation and is the Director of Neuromodulation for Epilepsy at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center.
I completed 2 years of neurophysiology/epilepsy fellowship – first at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, second at the NYU Medical Center. I served as the Director of the Responsive Neurostimulation System (RNS) program for surgical management at the University of Pennsylvania as well as head of Epilepsy Education. I was also the associate program director of both the Neurology residency and Neurology medical student clerkship and assistant director of the Epilepsy Fellowship program. I then moved to become the Medical Director of Epilepsy at Metrohealth in Cleveland, Ohio where I started an epilepsy program for the underserved community from 2020-2023.
