General Info

What draws me to the field of urology is the chance to correct problems that people don't like to talk about, but are important to function in everyday life. In urology, we deal with many problems like cancer, emergencies, and kidney stones. For children, it can be challenging for parents to know what's best for their child and taking time to learn options helps with this process. Talking with parents, helping them understand their child's condition, learning what they want, and working toward a solution is supremely rewarding. It is a privilege that they allow us into their lives. I am also committed to Dartmouth Health's mission to improve care through discovery science. My lab investigates genitourinary development, cancer, and environmental chemical exposure using the zebrafish model. We seek to understand the influence of environment on the developing urinary system and bladder function. My goal is to offer optimized and personalized interventions for the conditions I see in my patients.
