About Me

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.
