I am a fellowship-trained, board-certified colorectal surgeon. I perform surgery for colorectal cancer, Crohn’s and diverticular diseases, ulcerative colitis and hemorrhoids, fissures and fistula. I use a minimally invasive approach whenever possible. It’s important to me to provide ongoing care to my patients so I can help them manage their symptoms, prevent complications and improve their quality of life during treatment.
Before joining Penn State Health, I practiced at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center in Columbus, Ohio. In my free time, I enjoy soccer and travel.
