Clinical Interests
My focus is providing care to patients with complications of liver disease, including care before and after liver transplantation. In addition, I perform endoscopy (upper GI endoscopy, colonoscopy) and liver biopsies.
Care Philosophy
I strive to be an advocate for my patients. By focusing on communication, I hope to provide my patients a good understanding of their medical condition. With this, we develop an individualized care plan.
