Treatment Philosophy

The field of oncology and cancer therapeutics is growing and changing at an immensely fast pace, creating new, promising opportunities for our patients every day.  I am fortunate to specialize in the treatment of patients with breast cancer and classical hematologic conditions at Fox Chase. I find the greatest joy in working to help patients understand their unique diagnoses and options to personalize a care plan that fits them best. I believe providing excellent care requires great communication between the medical team, the patient, and their loved ones, and I work to prioritize this in my practice.

Cancer care is delicate and complex and I feel privileged to be a part of the team at Fox Chase focused on achieving the best possible outcome for each patient we see.
