About Me

I am a board-certified anesthesiologist at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. I specialize in providing anesthesia care for obstetrical procedures, including labor pain relief and anesthesia for surgical deliveries. My focus is on ensuring patient safety and comfort throughout the delivery experience.

My patients can rely on me for high quality, compassionate care and honest communication in every encounter. I collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of skilled experts to ensure each patient receives personalized care tailored to their unique needs and values.

In addition to my clinical responsibilities, I am passionate about advancing the field of anesthesiology, ophthalmology and biomedical engineering through education and innovation in research. I serve as a Professor Emeritus of Anesthesiology at The Ohio State University College of Medicine and as participating faculty in Biomedical Engineering. I contribute to research in both clinical and bench research projects.
