Additional Information

I am a Harvard Medical School-trained, board-certified physician specializing in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R), with fellowship training in sports medicine, non-surgical orthopedic care, and interventional pain management. My primary focus is oncological rehabilitation, where I work to enhance quality of life and function for patients facing physical impairments related to cancer and other complex medical conditions and injuries. Throughout my career, I have held academic appointments and leadership roles at esteemed major healthcare institutions, and I frequently speak on both a local and national level. In addition, I provide expert medical-legal opinions in personal injury and medical malpractice cases, focusing on causation, future medical needs, and life care planning. I am also actively involved in peer review for long-term disability claims with major insurance carriers and have extensive experience reviewing legal claims involving fraudulent prescription of durable medical equipment in no-fault auto cases. My unique ability to connect the fields of medicine and law allows me to deliver comprehensive evaluations and insights critical to achieving fair outcomes. I am board certified in PM&R by the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (2008, valid through 2028) and licensed to practice in New York.
