I’m a transplant surgeon specializing in liver and kidney transplants at one of the busiest pediatric transplant centers in the country. Our practice is at the forefront of new technology and innovation, resulting in excellent patient outcomes.

My interest in surgery was sparked by seeing the impact a transplant can have on the lives of children and the ability to cure diseases. My care philosophy centers on personalized, multidisciplinary care and treating the whole patient, not just their disease.

I’m also a researcher focused on cellular therapy for metabolic liver disease, minimizing the morbidity of immunosuppression, finding better ways to monitor immunosuppression and changing organs on perfusion pumps to make them less immunogenic.

I have won the Chief Resident Award for excellence in teaching and leadership at Yale School of Medicine and authored over 30 publications in transplantation and immunology.

I am multilingual, speaking Hebrew, Spanish and English. In my free time, I enjoy jazz music and playing the bass guitar.
