How I fell in love with otolaryngology:
I love the wide variety of patients and conditions that I see in everyday practice of otolaryngology. I especially love treating hoarse patients and helping them to regain their voice, especially when they use their voice professionally.

Three things you don’t know about me:

  • When not being a doctor, I play guitar, bass, mandolin, fiddle and have played in a flamenco group, reggae band and bluegrass band.
  • I enjoy cycling, hiking and skiing.
