About Me
I am a board-certified neurologist with specialized training in neurocritical care. My practice focuses on caring for patients with severe and life-threatening neurologic conditions, including acute ischemic stroke, intracerebral and subarachnoid hemorrhage, seizures and status epilepticus, traumatic brain injury, cerebral edema, neuromuscular emergencies, and other conditions requiring intensive neurologic monitoring.
I am passionate about neurocritical care because it combines complex decision-making, advanced critical care, and the opportunity to support patients and families during some of the most difficult moments of their lives.
I am passionate about treating neurologic emergencies, but just as importantly, I care deeply about helping patients and families navigate the uncertainty and complexity of critical illness. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and individualized, with the intent of providing the best possible care while making sure patients and their loved ones feel heard and supported throughout the process.
My goal is not only to guide patients through the acute phase of a serious neurologic illness, but also to help create the best possible path toward recovery.
