Get to Know Me
My inspiration to become a doctor came from my dad who served as a role model for me as a urologist. My area of interest is in surgically repairing urinary tract abnormalities that some children are born with. To me, nothing is more satisfying than seeing a child recover from a difficult operation. I’m married with four children and enjoy reading, traveling, cooking, and other activities.Education & Training
