Professional Summary
After graduating from residency in the University of Buffalo Psychiatry residency in 2005, I have been working in CPEP, the psychiatric emergency room at ECMC where I am currently the director of day-to-day operations. I have also been invited to sit on the curriculum committee that decides approaches to resident education and serve as a “Core faculty member” of the University of Buffalo residency. Further than this, I have a small outpatient practice in Amherst, New York. I try to approach each day that it will be a success for the patient. For all patients. Whether it is in CPEP or in the outpatient practice, we try every day. In some, we do not achieve success. In some percentage, we do. And it is the hope that this percentage, along with hope for the community and the hospital grows with toil and solid understanding of the plight of the other person.
