Personal Statement

Partnering with my patients to achieve control of their seizures and surmount the other challenges associated with epilepsy is immensely gratifying. It is a privilege to collaborate with my patients and the multidisciplinary experts within the Weill Cornell Epilepsy Center to leverage the ever-expanding medical and surgical options currently available. I look forward to learning more about my patients’ lives and needs to come up with a treatment plan that improves their quality of life.
