Doctor's Bio
I’m a board-certified radiation oncologist in the Department of Radiation Oncology at Emory University School of Medicine. My practice includes the treatment of thoracic, gynecologic, and genitourinary cancers utilizing standard radiation techniques. Additionally, I utilize specialized high dose techniques such as HDR brachytherapy and stereotactic body and cranial radio surgeries (SBRT, SRS).
