Women’s health is a cornerstone of a thriving community, and its importance continues to grow in today’s healthcare landscape. I chose to pursue a career in gynecology out of a deep commitment to supporting the health and well-being of women in my community.

I received my residency and fellowship training at two leading academic medical centers, where I developed a strong foundation in delivering compassionate, patient-centered, and evidence-based care. My clinical practice encompasses the full spectrum of general gynecology, with a particular focus on the management of complex conditions such as uterine fibroids, endometriosis, and chronic pelvic pain.

As a graduate of an AAGL-accredited fellowship in Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery, I am dedicated to offering advanced medical and surgical treatment options tailored to each patient’s needs. I specialize in minimally invasive surgical techniques—including both laparoscopic and robotic-assisted procedures—which allow for shorter recovery times, less postoperative discomfort, and a quicker return to daily life.

I am passionate about empowering women through informed care and am honored to play a role in improving their quality of life through personalized, expert treatment
