Commitment to Patient-Centered Care
“I believe in partnering with patients at every stage of kidney disease to improve their health and quality of life.”
Clinical Expertise
I am board-certified in internal medicine and nephrology and provide care to patients with kidney disease in the hospital, the clinic, and in dialysis centers. I have a research interest in studying and improving outcomes for patients who use home dialysis.
