About Me

care philosophy

Patients come expecting that after surgery they get better and return to their families, job, and life style. So my goal is to make sure the patients return to their loved ones and live a life that is fulfilling. Any neurological deficit after surgery is not pleasant and i try my best not to create one.  

biography

As a Neurosurgeon, I am blessed to have the talent and skill to be one of top Neurosurgeons. I teach my residents the philosophy of kindness and caring and always to be on top to provide the best care you can.
