My patient care philosophy is founded on communication, respect and trust. I consider it a privilege to care for patients. When discussing a patient’s diagnosis or condition, I ask about his or her goals of treatment, both medical and lifestyle, and always include them in developing a specific plan of care, whether it’s medical or surgical.
My focus is on the medical and surgical care for conditions of the genitourinary tract in men and women, including the prostate, bladder and kidneys. I also specialize in robotic surgeries to treat both cancer (kidney, prostate, bladder) and for reconstructive purposes as well as endoscopic surgeries that focus on voiding dysfunction and stones.
I am the first urologist at St. Luke’s who performs Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate, or HoLEP, a unique, laser-based, endoscopic surgery for voiding dysfunction. This condition, in which non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate prevents urine from emptying effectively, is known as BPH.
I was born in Maryland and grew up in New Jersey. I earned my medical degree from UMDNJ – Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, where I was class president and graduated with honors as an inductee into the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society. I completed a general surgery internship at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, followed by a urology residency at Duke University Hospital.
Following my residency, I served as an active-duty US Army urologist at Fort Benning, Georgia, and then at Fort Belvoir, Virginia, where I became the chief of urology.
After leaving the military, I honed my minimally invasive skills in robotic and endourology through a fellowship at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital in Philadelphia.
