I am a board-certified nurse practitioner (NP) with special training in cancer survivorship. I practice in the Adult Long Term Follow Up Program caring for adults who were treated for cancer as children or young adults. I am a graduate of Columbia Universitys nurse practitioner program and have been working at Memorial Sloan Kettering as a NP since 1990. I focus on the long-term effects of cancer treatment. I am committed to improving the quality of life of my patients.
