My Practice Philosophy
It is a privilege to take care of patients with cancer. I enjoy leading a comprehensive team of cancer-care specialists who work together to provide state-of-the art care. I believe in a multidisciplinary, compassionate and personalized approach to the care and support of each patient. In partnership with my patients, I strive to develop an individualized treatment plan that is tailored to their needs. I am optimistic about the future for cancer treatment, as every year brings new advances in our field!
About Me
I was born and raised in Northern California. I attended Indiana University, graduating in 1997 with a dual major in Biology and Chemistry and a minor in Mathematics. I remained at Indiana University for my medical school training and graduated in 2003. After obtaining my medical degree, I completed my internship and residency in internal medicine at the University of Texas Southwestern (Parkland Hospital). I subsequently went to Weill Cornell Medical Center-New York Presbyterian Hospital to complete my fellowship in Hematology and Oncology. I received an additional subspecialty fellowship from Weill Cornell Medical College in Genitourinary Oncology Clinical Research from 2005-2006 and completed a Masters of Science in Clinical Investigation from Cornell University in 2010. I am board certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine. I joined Kaiser Permanente in 2010.
My Interests
I really enjoy caring for patients with breast cancer and genitourinary cancers (prostate, kidney, bladder, and testicular). On a personal note, I love spending time with friends and family, enjoying good food and wine together.

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.
