Provider Expertise
Care Philosophy
I am interested in Genitourinary Cancers (Prostate, Bladder, Testicular and Kidney Cancers). We strive to provide patient-focused, personalized, multi-disciplinary care for genitourinary (GU) cancers. Our specialized providers in Medical Oncology (chemotherapy and targeted therapies), Urologic Oncology, Radiation Oncology, Pathology, Molecular Pathology, Radiology, Interventional Radiology, Nuclear Medicine, Nutrition, and Integrative Medicine work together to achieve the best outcomes for our patients. We have weekly GU cancer tumor boards, where our specialists come together to discuss patients and patient care.

Research Interest for Referring Providers
I am fully committed to delivering goal-concordant care to people facing cancer. As an expert in GU cancers, I aim to use my knowledge of these tumors to then align a care plan with the values and priorities of our patients. My research focuses on improving the level of care for older adults with cancer, and in implementing existing effective measures in order to deliver high quality care in an equitable manner to all persons.
