“Treat others as you would want to be treated.”
I’m a gastroenterologist and advanced therapeutic endoscopist with deep expertise in treating complex gastrointestinal conditions using minimally invasive procedures.
My passion for medicine began with a personal experience — my grandfather's battle with pancreatic cancer. Later, I had a formative summer shadowing an orthopedic surgeon in high school, which solidified my path. These experiences, combined with my love of human connection and problem solving, continue to guide my work.
Philosophy of Care
My philosophy is simple: I treat patients as I would want my own loved ones to be treated — with clear communication, respect and individualized care that prioritizes each person's needs.
Favorite Parts of Medicine
  • Building relationships with patients and families
  • Navigating the intellectual, emotional and technical challenges of complex GI care
  • Making a meaningful impact through precision medicine and advanced endoscopic techniques
Awards & Recognition
  • Top Doctors, Texas Monthly (2015–2024)
Community Involvement
I proudly serve as the Medical Director and co-founder of Rebecca's Wish Foundation, an organization focused on pediatric pancreatitis awareness and support.
Hobbies
When I'm not in the clinic, I enjoy playing tennis, gardening and traveling with my family.
