Physician, Assistant Professor
Cardiac Surgery
Department: Surgery
I'm a dedicated surgeon specializing in adult cardiac surgery, focusing on complex conditions such as coronary artery disease, valve disorders, aortic issues, and end-stage lung disease and heart failure requiring transplants. My approach is centered on delivering personalized care, tailored to the unique needs and aspirations of each patient. I firmly believe that the ordinary moments in our life can be someone else's desperate hours, driving my commitment to ensuring the best outcomes during these critical times.
Beyond work, I cherish family time, travel and my passion for sports.
