Summary

Patients often come to me during a scary time in their lives. They could be dealing with severe symptoms or concerned about a potential diagnosis. I work in a multidisciplinary setting as a part of the Comprehensive Thoracic Oncology Program (CTOP) at Dartmouth-Hitchcock. I provide compassionate care alongside our thoracic surgeons, medical oncologists, and radiation oncologists. I perform advanced endoscopic procedures within the lung to help with a variety of ailments. These include: Managing asthma and COPD Diagnosing and staging lung cancer Alleviating blockages from within the airways During our visits, I convey information in a simple and thoughtful way. I make sure to answer all patient questions. I work with the patient to create a plan of action they are comfortable with.
