Life can be hectic, and today’s compartmentalized healthcare often adds more office visits and doctors to your to-do list. As a board-certified physician, I am dedicated to the holistic healthcare needs of patients throughout the Upper East Side of Manhattan, all of New York, and beyond. I prevent, diagnose, and treat diseases of the complex organ systems and their interactions. Many procedures and screenings can be done right in my office. To learn more about my approach to care, call the office to schedule an appointment today.
What is internal medicine?
Internal medicine is the application of clinical expertise and scientific knowledge to the diagnosis, prevention, and care of adults—from general healthcare needs to complex diseases. A physician specializing in internal medicine, or an internist, undergoes several years of medical school and postgraduate training to treat adults in this capacity. My expertise is not limited to one organ or system; I am trained to handle anything you might bring to me.
I make connections between your health history, lifestyle, and symptoms to accurately diagnose your condition and recommend the best course of treatment available.
What conditions do I diagnose and treat?
With extensive specialized training, I am qualified to prevent, diagnose, and manage nearly all conditions affecting patients from young adulthood well into the golden years.
Examples of conditions I treat include:
- Abdominal pain
- Chest pain
- Cold and flu
- Constipation or diarrhea
- Diabetes
- Fatigue
- Heartburn
- Insomnia
- Palpitations
- Respiratory problems
- Thyroid abnormalities
- Vitamin deficiencies
- Sexual dysfunction
I believe in holistic healthcare, and I see connections between symptoms, organ systems, and underlying conditions that other doctors might not. Your lifestyle, family history, and emotional health all play a part in your overall well-being, and I will work with you to help you look and feel your best at every age and stage of life.
What are the benefits of an internist?
There are many reasons to choose me for your healthcare needs. As an internist, I am your first line of defense against many common diseases and conditions. I identify your risk factors early on to help prevent problems before organ damage occurs. Because I do not limit myself to one organ or system, you receive holistic care designed for optimal health.
Seeing me as part of your concierge medicine membership offers you invaluable one-on-one time and comprehensive care from a doctor who truly knows you.

- Multi-cancer screening with the Galleri blood test
At the heart of your internal medicine care is the relationship we build together. I always take the time to listen to your concerns and welcome your questions. To find out if a concierge internal medicine physician is right for you, call my office today.
