About
“Healing happens when patients feel heard.”
I am a liver transplant surgeon at University Health Transplant Institute. I care for patients with advanced liver disease and those who need complex transplant procedures.
I went into medicine because I wanted to make a deep and positive impact in people’s lives. Transplant surgery allows me to do that in a meaningful way. Every day, I have the privilege of helping patients regain their health, hope and the chance for a new beginning.
Areas of Focus

Liver transplant surgery
Living donor liver transplantation
Split liver transplantation
Philosophy of Care
I believe exceptional care starts with communication, honesty and a true partnership with each patient.
My goal is to help people feel supported, informed and confident as they face some of the hardest moments of their lives. When patients feel heard, healing becomes possible.
Favorite Parts of Medicine
Using advanced surgical techniques and evidence-based care to help patients have the best possible outcomes
Building relationships with patients and their families
Being part of the science and innovation that help move transplant surgery forward
Hobbies
Outside of medicine, I enjoy reading, cooking, hunting and fishing.
