Inspired by a family deeply rooted in medicine, I was drawn to a career where I could make a profound impact on people’s lives during their most vulnerable moments. My passion for medicine found its home in gynecologic oncology, a specialty that allows me to work closely with patients throughout their cancer journey, offering both surgical and chemotherapy care. This continuity of care fosters a meaningful physician-patient relationship that is both professionally fulfilling and personally rewarding. With an uncle and a spouse in the same field, gynecologic oncology has become an integral part of both my career and my life, underscoring my dedication to this impactful work.

At the Perlmutter Cancer Center at NYU Langone Gynecologic Oncology Associates in Mineola, I specialize in treating adult women with a range of gynecologic cancers, including ovarian, uterine, cervical, vulvar, vaginal, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancers, as well as those with an increased genetic risk, such as BRCA mutations or Lynch syndrome. My practice encompasses a holistic approach, combining surgical techniques, ranging from minimally invasive and robotic surgeries to complex open procedures and sentinel lymph node biopsies, with chemotherapy. Together with a multidisciplinary team, we develop tailored treatment plans that accompany patients from diagnosis through survivorship.

In my practice, I prioritize empathetic communication and transparency, ensuring patients and their families are well-informed to make decisions that reflect their personal values and goals. Our team is committed to delivering exceptional, evidence-based care while respecting each patient’s autonomy. We view every patient as a partner in their healthcare journey, fostering a trusting relationship grounded in genuine respect and compassion.

My treatment philosophy emphasizes the uniqueness of each patient’s situation. I recognize that cancer intersects with broader life contexts, and my goal is to provide care that is both clinically effective and personally meaningful. I strive to design treatment plans that optimize long-term outcomes while honoring each patient’s quality of life.

The human connection is the most rewarding aspect of my role in patient care. It’s a privilege to accompany patients through every phase of their cancer experience, from diagnosis to recovery, possible recurrence, and survivorship. The trust and relationships built with my patients are deeply meaningful and motivate me to be a supportive and empowering presence in their lives. This continuous commitment to patient care is at the heart of why I chose gynecologic oncology and why I remain passionately dedicated to it every day.
