About

Philosophy of care

I strive to provide state-of-the-art care to patients with blood cancers who are undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation and cellular immunotherapy. I help maintain patient safety and the efficacy of these complicated treatments by taking a broad and detailed view of the patient, their condition and treatment options. I also educate and empower patients and the care team through in-depth analysis of any clinical problems.

Why I entered medicine

I got into medicine to understand the complexities of human physiology, to aid in healing the sick and to make that journey a little less fraught. I also work on developing therapies accessible to all.

Community involvement

I support charitable work at home and abroad.

Personal interests

In my spare time I enjoy working in my garden and nature walks with my family.
