MAJOR RESEARCH INTERESTS

I am interested in endoscopic management of benign prostatic hypertrophy. There are a variety of techniques available and it is important to compare outcomes.

My other interest is endoscopic management of renal and ureteral calculi. A variety of lasers and techniques exist. Finally, I have always been interested in medical education and advancing the experience of our residents. Most recently, I have taken a deep interest in diversity, equity and inclusion as it pertains to students and residents alike. RESEARCH SUPPORT
