About Me

I provide preventive health care and treat infectious diseases in my role in the Department of Internal Medicine at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. I am especially passionate about ensuring quality care for patients in the LGBTQ+ and Latinx communities.

I regularly treat conditions including HIV, hepatitis C, sexually transmitted infections (STI), gender affirming care, diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). My extensive experience includes treating patients at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, including serving in vaccination clinics.?

At The Ohio State University, patients benefit from a team-based approach. Practicing in such a prestigious academic environment allows me access to the latest innovations and recommendations in the field, which in turn helps me provide the best care possible to a wide variety of patients from around central Ohio. I also love training medical students, residents and pre-meds, while simultaneously learning from their perspective as well.

In my free time, I enjoy spending quality time with my wife and dog. I like reading, cycling and playing the occasional video game.

    Very knowledgeable, made care decisions that were best for me. I was happy to find the diagnosis and follow his advice. Spent enough time to allow me to ask questions and explain myself. Gave good advice for me to follow with over-the-counter medications.
