“I was initially drawn to Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) medicine due to its unique impact on how people interact with the world around them. Whether by restoring hearing, aiding breathing, or relieving chronic sinus issues, practicing otolaryngology allows me to create meaningful differences in the quality-of-life of my patients.

I completed my residency training at Parkland Memorial Hospital and the University of Texas
Southwestern Medical Center, one of the largest medical centers in the country. During this time, I developed particular interests in the treatment of sinus disease, sleep apnea, and endocrine surgery. I later pursued fellowship training in Head and Neck Endocrine Surgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital, gaining expertise in radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and scarless thyroid/parathyroid surgery. Today, in addition to treating the full spectrum of ENT disorders, I am pleased to be one of the first physicians in Florida to offer these innovative procedures to my patients.

My patient care philosophy is deeply rooted in compassion, respect, and open communication. I truly believe that personalized and collaborative medicine is the key to creating lasting improvements in my patients’ health and well-being. With this understanding, I aim to work together with my patients to find the treatment that is best suited to their individual needs.”
