Patients Seen: All Ages

I’m a comprehensive otolaryngologist who cares for the full range of ear, nose, and throat conditions — from everyday concerns to complex surgical needs. I believe medicine is most effective when it’s personal, so I take the time to listen, explain, and guide each patient with kindness and compassion. My goal is to help people not only get better, but feel genuinely cared for throughout the process.
