About

I believe we all have a purpose and mine is to help people with hearing loss and other ear problems through excellent clinical and surgical care, research, and education. I also believe it is important to train the next generation of physicians in our specialty and to promote health care solutions that are economically viable. I am very interested in office based-therapy for inner ear disorders such as sudden hearing loss and meniere's disease. I hope to one day be able to offer patients a completely implantable cochlear implant.
