About Me
More info forI am a radiation oncologist and Professor in the Department of Radiation Oncology at The Ohio State University. I was named to the Castle Connolly list of “Regional Top Doctors” from 2014-2023. I spent 20 years in the U.S. Navy and retired from the Navy Reserve in 2007 at the rank of Captain in the Medical Corps. I believe strongly in the mission of the OSUCCC – James to bring about a cancer-free world through cutting-edge research and delivering highly individualized, caring treatment of all our patients. Much of my clinical work is in treating genitourinary cancers and gynecologic cancers. I have extensive experience in performing brachytherapy procedures for both men with prostate cancer and women with advanced gynecologic cancers. In addition to my clinical interests, I am very active in several roles working to improve the quality and safety of medical care delivery. I currently serve on several medical center committees that oversee credentialing and quality and safety measures. Nationally, I am the vice chair of the ASTRO Clinical Affairs and Quality Council and a member of the ASTRO Board of Directors. I am honored to be able to work at The James and collaborate with our amazing staff and faculty.
