Clinical Interests
I have a broad interest in the field of colon and rectal surgery and will treat everything from common conditions, such as hemorrhoids and fissures, to inflammatory bowel disease and complex colon, rectal, and anal cancer. I have a special interest in women's pelvic health and value CU's multidisciplinary approach to pelvic floor disorders. I also provide additional access to screening colonoscopies. I am trained in minimally invasive approaches, including laparoscopic and robotic surgery.
Care Philosophy
I focus on individualized and thoughtful patient centered care, maximizing patient comfort and independence. My goal is to understand your symptoms and create a plan together to improve your quality of life.
