Summary
- I’m a board-certified Hematologist-Oncologist delivering academic-caliber care in a high-functioning, community-based setting. My clinical practice is rooted in outpatient medicine, where I manage a wide spectrum of benign hematologic disorders and common to complex malignancies. I’m fortunate to practice within Texas Oncology’s robust network, integrated with the Sarah Cannon Cancer Center—an ecosystem that provides access to cutting-edge technology, novel therapeutics, and a strong multidisciplinary referral base across the DFW metroplex.
In addition to patient care, I serve as Principal Investigator on multiple clinical trials, primarily industry-sponsored, bringing research-driven options directly to my patients. I also chair the Hematology/Oncology rotation for HCA Denton’s residency program and actively mentor residents at the THR Denton site. I’m particularly interested in rethinking how we teach heme/onc—and always open to conversations about curriculum reform and how to better prepare trainees for the realities of modern oncology practice.
