This is achieved through individually designed treatment plans that adhere to the latest practice guidelines, thus ensuring the highest quality of care.

He then completed his training in diagnostic radiology at Albert Einstein College of Medicine’s Jacobi Medical Center in 2020 and his fellowship in interventional radiology at Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx, New York in 2021.
