About
Personal Statement
After more than 40 years as a gastroenterologist working in academic institutions in Leicester (England), Boston and New York and with a passionate interest in therapeutic endoscopy, I am excited and honored to be given the opportunity to join the Gastroenterology Division at Weill Cornell Medical College and New York Presbyterian Hospital and be given the responsibility to direct the Center for Advanced Digestive Care in the new David H Koch Building for Advanced Medicine. With a dedicated and expanded faculty, we plan to offer our patients the latest in ambulatory endoscopic treatment in collaboration with other specialties who will be present in the same location. This multidisciplinary model will change the way we treat gastrointestinal diseases and will be a new standard for medical practice which others will follow.
