I am a board-certified neurologist (American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology). I am also a Fellow of the American Academy of Neurology (the requirements for Fellow status exceed those for board-certification). I have been in private solo practice since 1986.

In addition to my M.D. degree, I have earned a Ph.D. in physiology with specific training in the area of neurophysiology and electrophysiology. I am also trained as a medical research scientist with research experience relating to brain structures involved in Parkinson's Disease.

I completed my residency training at the Dent Neurologic Institute in Buffalo, New York.

I have taught medical residents, medical students, nurses, physical therapists and occupational therapists.

I adhere to the high professional standards set forth by the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS).

I am a past president of AAPS, and have served three terms on its board of directors.

I have authored numerous articles in professional journals.

I lecture on a variety of topics throughout the nation pertaining to the preservation of the patient-doctor relationship and other important issues affecting the practice of medicine.

I am the Editor-in-Chief of the highly respected  Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons (www.jpands.org).
