Get to Know Me

I am a bone marrow transplant specialist who has special training in treating people with blood disorders or blood cancers. I am experienced in different treatments including stem cell transplantation, immunotherapy (a type of treatment that uses the body’s own immune system to attack cancer cells), and cellular therapy.

At Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), I am part of a team of transplantation specialists who are dedicated to delivering the latest, personalized care. I see patients at Memorial Hospital, MSK’s main hospital, in New York City.

I prioritize open and clear communication, making sure that every person fully understands their diagnosis and treatment plan.

My goal is to provide care that is focused on the patient, using actual data to achieve the best treatment results. I am committed to continuous professional development and work closely with my colleagues to make sure we deliver the best care for our patients.
