get to know me

I chose my specialty because...

of my desire to help with promoting a healthy new generation. Having worked in many countries (India, United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia and U.S.), I have seen and enjoyed working with infants with genetic and inborn errors of metabolism.


I chose to work at Dayton Children's because...

I love kids being treated as kids and the availability of various pediatric sub-specialists in a free standing children's hospital setting.


Dayton Children's is special because....

we provide the best care for children and their families.
