Clinical Interests
I see the full spectrum of musculoskeletal and autoimmune diseases seen by Rheumatologists. My primary areas of focus that align with my research interests include patients with inflammatory forms of arthritis ( example, rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis), osteoarthritis, and vasculitis (ANCA-associated vasculitis, giant cell arteritis, polyarteritis nodosa, leukocytoclastic vasculitis, etc).

Care Philosophy
I work closely with my patients to develop a shared diagnostic work-up and treatment plan.
