Professional Summary:

I am a board-certified in neurology and epilepsy. I completed my neurology residency and fellowship training in epilepsy at the University at Buffalo. My clinical practice focuses on providing comprehensive care for patients with epilepsy, with a particular passion for caring for women with epilepsy, especially during pregnancy, the postpartum period, and lactation.

In my practice, I work in collaboration with a multidisciplinary team of neurosurgeons, neuropsychologists, and radiologists to treat patients with medically refractory epilepsy, offering non-pharmacological treatments, including epilepsy surgery. I also interpret both inpatient and outpatient electroencephalography (EEG) studies at Kaleida Health. Additionally, I am one of the attending physicians caring for patients in the level 4 epilepsy monitoring unit at the Golisano Children’s Hospital of Buffalo (formerly Oishei Children's Hospital), where patients are closely monitored and evaluated for seizures and epilepsy.

As an Associate Program Director in the Department of Neurology at the University at Buffalo and as part of UBMD Neurology, I am actively involved in the education of medical students, residents, and fellows, helping to shape the next generation of neurologists. I see patients at both the UBMD Neurology clinic at Conventus and the UBMD Neurology clinic in Williamsville, while also providing consultation and inpatient management for adult patients with a wide range of neurological disorders at Buffalo General Medical Center.
