Biography
I’m a board-certified clinical pathologist at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. I specialize in diagnosing diseases by examining blood, tissue, and other body fluids–providing essential insights that help guide treatment decisions for patients across many specialties.
I completed my medical degree at the University of Gondar in Ethiopia, followed by residency training at Addis Ababa University and the Medical College of Wisconsin. I also completed a fellowship at Indiana University Hospital. I’m certified by the American Board of Pathology in Clinical Pathology.
My role is often behind the scenes, but it’s a vital part of your care. I work closely with your doctors to ensure that every diagnosis is accurate and timely, helping to shape the best possible treatment plan for your health.
