Biography

I am a board-certified pulmonary and critical care physician at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. I specialize in sarcoidosis, interstitial lung disease, and intensive care medicine, providing expert care for patients with complex respiratory conditions.

My patients can rely on me for high-quality, compassionate care and honest communication. I collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to ensure each patient receives personalized treatment that supports both immediate recovery and long-term lung health.

In addition to my clinical responsibilities, I serve as a professor of Internal Medicine at The Ohio State University College of Medicine, where I am dedicated to advancing research and education in pulmonary and critical care medicine.

    He is one of the greatest providers I've ever had. Very caring, helpful, respectful of my wants, needs and concerns. I look up to him in the highest regards.

  • Reviewed on Sep 06, 2025

    I like that he is so thorough and knowledgeable, and doesn't want to jump right into prescribing medication for my condition. We were able to discuss a treatment plan that we were both happy with.
