I am an AP/CP board certified pathologist with subspecialty in Pediatric Pathology. In adult surgical pathology, my areas of interest include Breast, GU and GYN pathology. I have practiced both adult and pediatric/perinatal pathology in academic as well as community hospital settings.
My main focus, as a diagnostician, is to assist my clinical colleagues in providing the best patient care. Additionally, I enjoy teaching and training pathology residents and medical students.
