Clinical Interest for Patients
My clinical interest is prenatally diagnosed urologic conditions, such as ureteropelvic junction obstruction, vesicoureteral reflux, posterior urethral valves, and bladder exstrophy with an emphasis on providing multidisciplinary care to optimize long term renal and bladder outcomes.
Care Philosophy
I strive to provide compassionate, evidence based care for my patients. I believe that it is essential to actively engage parents in determining the best care for their children and to optimize treatment for them.
