I'm a gastroenterologist at the University of Virginia. I'm a general luminal gastroenterologist. That means that I see conditions that affect the whole GI tract, including the esophagus or the swallowing to the stomach, as well as the intestines. I'm particularly interested in conditions like Celiac disease. Celiac disease is an autoimmune condition that can affect the small intestine and cause people to have trouble digesting things like gluten, which is found in wheat, barley and rye. Part of my time is spent in the clinic seeing patients and making diagnoses. The other part of my time is spent in the endoscopy unit where we actually use a camera to examine the insides of the intestine to help make diagnoses. I'm passionate about clinical care and getting to know my patients. One of the things that I really enjoy about gastroenterology is that I am a specialist in this area. But I still get to longitudinally follow patients over a long course of time as well. I like to get to know my patients both personally as well as their medical history. I really enjoy seeing patients over time. I think the great thing about UVA is that we have great primary care as well as specialty care. Even within the division of gastroenterology and hepatology, we have specialists that treat various different diagnoses. So as a general luminal gastroenterologist, if I see a patient that also has some liver concerns or pancreas concerns, I can always discuss with my colleagues. So that we can really coordinate their care and work as a team to do the best for the patient.
