I am so excited to be part of the Pediatric Hematology/Oncology team at Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey. I joined here in 2019 after working 23 years at Hackensack University Medical Center in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit and Pediatric Emergency Department. Working with children and their families is a true passion for me. Providing the highest level of care has always been my priority.
I love the multidisciplinary approach of our team at Rutgers Cancer Institute, it is very patient and family focused. My role is primarily with the benign hematology population, with a focus on Sickle Cell Disease. It is an exciting time for Sickle Cell research, and I am fortunate to be part of that. It is a privilege to be able to care for these families and work with this team.
Our Advanced Practice Providers work in collaboration with the physicians in their respective oncology programs and may not always be scheduled directly.
25 years of experience in Pediatric care, including primary care, critical care and emergency care.

Each plan is different and some provide different levels of coverage that could make a difference in your out-of-pocket costs. It is always best for the patient receiving care to contact their insurance company to obtain more information.
