Summary

After graduating from Guntur Medical College in India and working as a general practitioner, I came to the United States to marry my husband. I completed a NYU-affiliated residency in Internal Medicine and then a Fellowship in Geriatrics at Hackensack University Medical Center. I then spent several years working at Hackensack University Medical Center with responsibilities in the Medical Clinic and teaching medical residents. In 2004, I joined the Rutherford practice of Doctors David Isralowitz and Robert Wooton, which is now an integral part of New Jersey Physicians, LLC.

My practice includes adult and teenage patients with many types of medical problems. I especially enjoy the challenge of treating obesity and uncontrolled diabetes mellitus and have achieved great success through an aggressive focus on diet and exercise.
