What drew you to this profession? My mother was grooming me to become a medical doctor. Despite being around the best medical doctors in the world, they never helped with some of my primary health issues. One day after undergraduate school, someone suggested I consider chiropractic.  As soon as I got to school, I was enthralled by how giant the field of holistic natural healthcare was.

How does your work differ from others in your profession? Patients have often shared that they’ve never been to one place that offers so many disciplines. Because we have such a deep “toolkit,” we can find the right tool for their problem. 

What should someone expect from working with you? A never-ending commitment to uncovering and solving their current health concerns and the mission to optimize their health, body and human experience at a level and pace they’re comfortable and ready for. 

How is your practice evolving in 2023? We launched our virtual practice to help people all over New York access top-tier functional nutrition, not just those local to our Long Island office. 

What is most important for Natural Awakenings readers to know? Experiencing chronic pain or illness can be debilitating to the mind, body and spirit. Many of our patients come to us after countless tests, doctors and medications without much relief. There is still hope, and we've made it our mission to help our patients regain their lives. If you're doubtful, please read our Google reviews or testimonials on our site.
