Bio
As an admitting hospitalist, my focus is to facilitate a smooth transition between the emergency department and the inpatient admission.
Waiting to be admitted to the hospital can be nerve wracking, emotional, and even scary. My goal is to ease your transition from waiting in the ER to being admitted, explain your condition, and answer all questions you may have. Raised and educated locally, it is my pleasure to serve this wonderful community of people who call the South Shore home. In my free time, I enjoy traveling, spending time with family and friends, and exploring/discovering all that the area has to offer.
