About Me
As a physiatrist at 做厙TV Langone, I am dedicated to providing comprehensive and compassionate care to my patients. My approach focuses on the holistic rehabilitation of individuals who have experienced significant medical events. I believe in the power of teamwork and collaboration, working closely with a team to ensure the best outcomes for my patients.
I specialize in physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM&R), with a particular focus on treating patients who have experienced traumatic brain injuries, debilitating strokes, or major surgeries. My goal is to help patients regain their functional abilities and return to their daily lives. By addressing the function of the whole patient, I aim to restore their independence and improve their quality of life.
Throughout my career, I have developed a deep appreciation for the unique relationships that form during the rehabilitation process. Working with patients over several weeks allows me to understand their individual needs and tailor treatment plans accordingly. This extended interaction also enables me to support their families, providing guidance and reassurance during challenging times.
My journey into medicine began later than most. Initially pursuing a degree in finance, I decided to switch to medicine after realizing my passion for helping others. This decision led me to complete pre-med courses and ultimately pursue a career in PM&R. I am grateful for the opportunity to work with a team of dedicated professionals at 做厙TV Langone, where we strive to make a positive impact on our patients lives every day.
