Philosophy:
My PhD research was in pharmacogenetics. That is the study of how heredity changes oneâÂÂs response to drugs (such as chemotherapy). I believe that this same individual approach to drug research also applies to how I care for patients. Everyone is an individual. I am interested in cancer and hematologic or blood cancers (lymphoma, myeloma, leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) in particular. I believe that we live in an exciting era in which new drugs are providing options for improving quality of life and survival. Clinical trials benefit the individual and society and should be encouraged in the community setting. My goal is to offer patients the best therapy available for their individual situation.
