Additional Information

I am board-certified in Pulmonary Medicine, Critical Care Medicine, Internal Medicine, and Neurocritical Care practicing in the Phoenix metropolitan area. I also have a certified of added qualification (CAQ) in advance diagnostic bronchoscopy from American Association of Bronchology and Interventional Pulmonology (AABIP). My clinical practice focuses on advanced pulmonary and critical care medicine, including robotic bronchoscopy, lung cancer diagnosis and management, ICU care, neurocritical care, and complex inpatient medicine. In addition to my clinical practice, I serve as Co-Chair of the hospital Code Committee, where I am actively involved in reviewing resuscitation cases, inpatient emergency response systems, quality improvement initiatives, and standards of care related to critically ill patients. I maintain an active clinical practice and work closely with multidisciplinary teams including oncology, thoracic surgery, neurology, neurosurgery, emergency medicine, and hospital administration. I believe my current hands-on experience in procedures, critical care medicine, as well as inpatient and outpatient pulmonary medicine, provides practical, evidence-based insight that may be valuable in plaintiff or defense case review. My areas of expertise include but are not limited to: - Pulmonary and critical care management - ICU and inpatient hospital medicine - Neurocritical care and neurologic emergencies - Stroke-related critical care management - Respiratory failure and ventilator management - Bronchoscopy and procedural complications - Delayed or missed lung cancer diagnosis - Pleural disease and thoracic oncology - Cardiac arrest response and code management - Standards of care in critically ill hospitalized patients
