A breast cancer diagnosis is life-changing, but it should not compromise your sense of self. My goal is to provide exceptional, evidence-based cancer treatment while also preserving your quality of life, body image and long-term confidence. As a breast surgical oncologist, I believe that exceptional cancer treatment requires a collaborative, personalized approach to healing.

I believe in a multidisciplinary approach to breast cancer care. By collaborating closely with medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, radiologists and pathologists, we create tailored, evidence-based treatment plans. My goal is to deliver compassionate, patient-centered surgical care that prioritizes both long-term health and the best possible aesthetic results.
