Dartmouth Cancer Center is one of the nation's premier facilities for cancer treatment and research. It is one of only 51 National Cancer Institute-designated comprehensive cancer centers in the United States. The Cancer Center provides a positive environment for treatment, cure, and recovery for patients with all forms of cancer. Patients receive technologically advanced cancer treatments and access to clinical trials of new treatments. Each patient is seen as an individual, and a specific treatment plan is developed by specialists who work directly with the patient, family, and referring physician. The Cancer Center is also a leader in improving the comfort and quality of life of patients.

The choice to pursue gynecologic oncology has been driven by my professional passion to provide excellent, evidence-based and compassionate patient care. I strive to be a kind, reliable and positive member of our gynecological oncology team in order to best meet the needs of our community. The nature of gynecological oncology care is rewarding in that I’m able to embrace the aspect of continuity of care with each and every patient, forming and building the relationship between physician and patient, gaining their trust and guiding them from diagnosis, through treatment, and onward through their medical journey.
