Summary
- I am an academic neurosurgeon committed to developing new and better treatment options for my patients suffering from brain tumors, stroke, aneurysms and vascular malformations.
I currently practice in Loma Linda, CA in the greater Los Angeles and Inland Empire, where I am Director of the Glioma Program and Director of Brain Tumor Translational Research at Loma Linda University Health Center.
My primary focus is minimally-invasive "keyhole" neurosurgery and advanced clinical trials, including stem cell therapies, cancer vaccines, and molecular profiling for personalized, targeted treatment of malignant brain tumors, brain aneurysms and vascular malformations.
