Biography
While in college I developed an interest in surgical oncology while working in Dr. E. Douglas Holyoke's Laboratory with a young Dr. Karakousis. I learned the dedication needed to become a surgeon and care for patients lives. Always being curious and open to new developments. I continue to look for new and minimally invasive approaches while not forgetting surgical and oncologic principles.
I grew up in Buffalo and have been committed to improve the health care of this community.
I love spending time with my wife and family. I am member of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity. I have been a golfer and Buffalo Bills fan since the 60s.
