About Me

I am a board-certified neonatal physician at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and Nationwide Children’s Hospital where I specialize in the care of critically ill and premature newborns. My clinical expertise includes the management of respiratory distress, complications of prematurity, and other critical conditions affecting newborns. I also specialize in caring for patients with chronic lung disease of prematurity (bronchopulmonary dysplasia).

I am committed to delivering high quality, compassionate care and fostering open, honest communication with families. I collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of skilled experts to develop personalized treatment plans that reflect each patient’s unique medical needs and family values.

In addition to my clinical responsibilities, I am passionate about educating and mentoring the next generation of providers and advancing neonatal care through translational research aimed at improving outcomes for premature newborns.
