Board-Certified Neuro-Oncologist
Carilion Clinic · Roanoke, VA
Delivering world-class brain tumor care to the Roanoke Valley and surrounding communities — with fellowship training from MD Anderson Cancer Center and a commitment to bringing clinical trials to our region.
I am a board-certified neuro-oncologist at Carilion Clinic in Roanoke, Virginia — one of the only fellowship-trained neuro-oncologists serving southwest Virginia and the surrounding Appalachian region.
My training at MD Anderson Cancer Center, one of the world's leading cancer institutions, provided me with deep expertise in managing glioblastoma, brain metastases, CNS lymphoma, and other complex brain tumors, using the most current protocols and RANO criteria.
My background in both neurology and neuro-oncology allows me to offer a uniquely comprehensive perspective — understanding both the neurological and oncological dimensions of each patient's care.
With more than 40 peer-reviewed publications, my research spans neuro-oncology, stereotactic radiosurgery, meningioma management, pituitary tumors, and vascular neurosurgery. I remain committed to advancing the science that directly informs patient care.
If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with a brain tumor or complex neurological cancer, I am here to help. Referrals are welcome from all providers in the region.
For urgent neurological concerns, please call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
