Biography

I am a board-certified nephrologist at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. I specialize in diagnosing and managing a wide range of kidney-related conditions including acute kidney injury, chronic renal insufficiency, cystic kidney diseases and pyelonephritis. I also provide care for patients undergoing renal dialysis and those with complex kidney disorders.

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 medical education and mentorship. I serve as a clinical professor of Internal Medicine in the Division of Nephrology at The Ohio State University College of Medicine where I help train the next generation of kidney care specialists.
