I believe in caring for every patient as I would for a member of my own family and in partnering with them to solve problems together. I value building strong, trusting relationships with my patients and take pride in working alongside colleagues from many disciplines, united in our goal of helping patients overcome cancer.
My training in both India and the United states has strengthened my clinical skills and helped me integrate advanced technologies into practice, allowing me to provide efficient and cost-effective care. I work closely with our team of specialists, pharmacists, and nurses to ensure clear communication and to support the highest level of safety for my patients.
If you have any questions about your care, I welcome them – whether by email, phone, or a video visit, whichever is most convenient for you.
I am originally from southern India, where I completed my initial medical training. My father, who practiced medicine in a small town with limited resources, inspired me to become a physician. After completing my internal medicine residency at Cook County Hospital in Chicago, I was drawn to the natural beauty and outdoor lifestyle of Colorado and moved here with my wife.
I worked as an internist for seven years before pursuing additional training in oncology, motivated in large part by a close family member’s experience with cancer. I was honored to be recognized as a 5280 Magazine Top Doctor in 2020, 2024, and 2025.
