My Biography

I graduated from Harvard College in 1967, and earned an MD at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in 1973. After a residency at Montefiore Hospital and completing two Cardiology fellowships, I began my practice in 1979, and joined Kaiser Permanente in 1981. I am board certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine.

I try to balance between providing the latest technological advances and enriching the doctor-patient relationship. Outside of medicine, I enjoy my children, Lieca photography, celestial events (total solar eclipse, Aurora Borealis), and the history and poetry of the Great War.

If you think you have a MEDICAL OR PSYCHIATRIC EMERGENCY, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY or go to the nearest hospital. DO NOT attempt to access emergency care through this web site. An emergency medical condition is a medical or psychiatric condition that manifests itself by acute symptoms of sufficient severity (including severe pain) such that you could reasonably expect the absence of immediate medical attention to result in any of the following: serious jeopardy to your health, serious impairment to your bodily functions, or serious dysfunction of any bodily organ or part. An emergency medical condition is also "active labor," which means a labor when there is inadequate time for safe transfer to a Plan hospital (or designated hospital) before delivery or if a transfer poses a threat to the health of the member or unborn child.
