Internal Medicine, Hospitalist

Hospitalist, ICU (Intensive Care Unit), Critical Care medicine, Sickle cell patients, stroke patients, ventilator care, COVID, hospitalized patients, heart attack patients, cardiovascular disease, decubitus ulcer issues, opiate abuse, Pulmonary embolism, Wound Care
I am a board certified Internal Medicine physician who currently works as a Hospitalist in Atlanta, GA. A Hospitalist is a physician who works in the inpatient setting of a hospital. Therefore, when sick patients visit the ER and its determined that they need to stay hospitalized, I get the call to take care of them (in the medical floors or ICU). Due to my full time schedule being "5 ON, 5 OFF" (five days of inpatient work followed by five days OFF of work), this allows me time to take on medical expert cases. Previous to my time in Atlanta, I have worked full time in New York City and New Jersey. In addition, I have taken on Locums assignments in several other states and cities. In previous summers, I have participated in medical missionary trips over seas - such as Jamaica and Nigeria.
When I'm home from saving the world (LOL), I spend time with my wonderful family. I have two daughters (ages 8 & 4) and a son (2). However, my greatest asset is my dear wife! Not only is she a wo...
