Hello and welcome to my website. I made this site for multiple reasons: to educate patients about Ear, Nose, & Throat issues, to showcase my work, and to let people know more about who I am. I decided to become an Otolaryngologist in medical school when I became familiar with the wonderful and challenging breadth and scope of this surgical subspecialty. As a solo practitioner for more than 30 years, I’ve continued to add new effective tools to alleviate disease and promote health (see the Metabolic Disorders page). I continue treating all ages and ailments in my Nyack office.

I am a loving father and husband, an avid musician, and a learner. I absolutely love what I do because for me, there truly is nothing more rewarding than helping people. My job allows me to replace people’s pain and stress with relief and happiness. I am a very lucky guy.

I pride myself on being thorough. You should never be confused about your own health. I will take the time to explain the causes, treatments, and maintenance procedures for any problem you may have. On the same token, I will listen to you. In order to provide the best treatment, we need to be on the same page. It sounds simple, but unfortunately some doctors forget how powerful communication is.

The ear, nose, and throat are crucial to our quality of life. Problems with any can be devastating – from hearing loss, congestion, Tonsillitis, chronic bloody noses, and many more. If you are struggling with ENT issues or chronic illness, call us at (845) 358-1700 or schedule an appointment online.
