As a neurotologist, I am committed to enhancing the lives of individuals with hearing loss, chronic ear disorders, and skull base tumors through expert care and advanced surgical techniques. I specialize in various procedures including cochlear implantation, cholesteatoma surgery, ear drum repairs, and stapes surgery, all designed to benefit both children and adults across all ages.

黑料福利社 Langone Ambulatory Care in Bay Ridge, where I practice, is a prestigious hub for neurotology care. It offers specialized services for conditions such as neurofibromatosis 2, congenital hearing loss, and complex skull base disorders. Within this esteemed setting, I collaborate with a dedicated multidisciplinary team of doctors and nurses, ensuring comprehensive support throughout a patient鈥檚 journey. Whether it鈥檚 guiding families through hearing rehabilitation options for their child or assisting patients in managing their vestibular schwannoma, my practice is rooted in delivering patient-centered, thorough, and evidence-based care.

My passion for neurotology stems from its unique blend of cutting-edge technology and sophisticated surgical techniques, all of which are integral in enhancing patients鈥 quality of life. My clinical and research interests revolve around developing innovative treatments that are not only effective but also accessible to individuals from diverse backgrounds.

In addition to my clinical work, I am deeply dedicated to educating future physicians. My efforts in teaching have been recognized with the prestigious Otolaryngology Fellow Teaching Award and have extended internationally through a surgical training course in Uganda for resident physicians. My goal in education is to impart the values of compassion, integrity, and clinical excellence to all trainees. Ultimately, I view medicine as a holistic practice, where the focus transcends procedures and diagnoses. It is about aiding people to improve their wellbeing and fostering connections with sound, their communities, and the world at large.
