I feel strongly about educating patients about all their options regarding their health, so they feel empowered to make informed healthcare choices. I encourage patients to ask questions, no matter how trivial they seem to be because I feel the more information they have, the better equipped they are to manage their health.
I grew up in Chicago, but relocated to the Lehigh Valley where I spent my high school years. After attending Villanova University, I moved back to Chicago where I completed my medical school and residency training at Loyola University Medical Center. I have extensive training in all laparoscopic surgeries, high risk obstetrics, gynecological cancer prevention and detection and hereditary cancer counseling.
I tell patients that the single most important thing they can do to stay healthy is to stay active. I stay active through water sports like boating, swimming and wave running and keeping up with my three children who play competitive baseball and softball. I and my family travel and explore as much as possible and I also enjoy collecting and restoring antique furniture when I find the time.
