One Voice Inspires, Many Voices Transform
Professional
I am a physician at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital in Philadelphia, and I have dedicated my career to caring for patients with MDS and acute leukemia. As an MDS specialist, I have the privilege of guiding patients and families through the complex and emotionally challenging process of MDS diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. I am there to celebrate the victories and mourn the losses, and it is an honor to be entrusted with such a responsibility. At the same time, I am also a researcher who develops and implements clinical trials with the goal of improving treatments and reducing the burdens of MDS. The MDS Foundation is such an important resource for patients, caregivers, and providers as it brings us together as a community with the united goal of improving the lives of those affected by MDS.
