My Greatest Accomplishment
Successfully assuming the role as chairman for the Department of Surgery at St. Mary’s Hospital, a 371-bed, level-two trauma facility, just three and a half years from completing my surgical training.
How Drexel Helped
The College of Medicine not only provided an excellent education and helped me get accepted into an excellent orthopaedic residency, but I was able to integrate lessons on the importance of empathy and compassion while delivering medical care.
Where I’ll Be In Five Years
I hope to continue to expand my physician leadership skills and assume higher-level administrative roles while continuing to provide high-quality care to trauma victims in my community.
