About me

I am an interventional neuroradiology fellow with advanced training in diagnosing and treating complex conditions that affect the blood vessels of the brain and spine. 

I specialize in caring for patients with:

  • Stroke
  • Aneurysms
  • Vascular malformations

I offer my patients minimally invasive, image-guided procedures.

My clinical interests include neurocritical care and stroke treatment, and I am deeply committed to global health and serving diverse communities. I understand that neurological conditions can be frightening and overwhelming, and I strive to provide care that is both highly skilled and deeply compassionate.

My approach to patient care is centered on listening, clear communication and respect. I aim to support patients and their families through every step of care, offering thoughtful guidance and treating each person with dignity and empathy.

Insurance

Before scheduling an appointment

  1. Check your network. If you have health insurance,  call your company to find out if the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is part of your network.
  2. Ask what you will pay. Your insurance company can tell you what your costs are likely to be.

If you schedule an appointment and your health insurance does not include OHSU Health, you may have to pay more than if you go to a provider in your insurance network.
