Gastroenterology
I believe that treating an individual is as important as treating the disease. This involves being a good listener and looking into the individual’s circumstances. As physicians, we have a wide range of options from administering medications, performing therapeutic procedures, to providing reassurance and by helping them make decisions about their medical care.
In 1988, I earned my M.D. from the University of Calcutta, India. My Internal Medicine Residency and Gastroenterology Fellowship were completed at State University of New York at Buffalo. I am Board Certified in Gastroenterology and a Fellow of the American College of Physicians and American College of Gastroenterology. Prior to this I worked at Lincoln Hospital where I was involved in residency training and had a Faculty appointment at Cornell University as Assistant Professor of Medicine.
I take special interest in the preventive aspects of colon cancer, which is the second most common cancer killer in this country. My other interests include abdominal pains, gastroesophageal reflux disease, peptic ulcer disease, irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis), liver (hemochromatosis, hepatitis B & C), biliary (gall stones), and pancreatic disorders.
