About Me

While I treat all conditions involving the digestive system, I specialize in diseases that affect how the gut moves (motility disorders) and problems with the food pipe (esophagus). I enjoy talking to patients, understanding their perspective and working with them to create an individualized treatment plan. In addition to my work with patients, I enjoy conducting research because it ultimately helps improve what I do on the clinical side too.

At Ohio State, I love the camaraderie among my colleagues and the focus on patient-centered care. People here are very friendly and do their best to help, which makes it special to work here.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, reading (am a big fan of Asterix and Obelix), painting, watching science fiction movies, biking and gardening.
Highlights
  • Received one year of training in managing esophageal diseases at Mayo Clinic
  • Received two years of training focused on managing patients, where I helped conduct clinical trials on constipation and accidental bowel leakage
  • Identified a new blood-based biomarker for early identification of very sick patients with acute pancreatitis
  • Worked on identifying how to combat resistance to chemotherapy in pancreatic cancer cells during my PhD

    The provider did not have answers to all my questions. There are very few remedies for my problems. My case is a work in progress.
