WelcomeI am so glad you found me.  You may know me from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center Suffolk Division where I served as the Director of the Department of Radiology for the past 5 years.  Perhaps you remember me from Winthrop University Hospital where I served as Director of Women's Imaging or maybe you knew me when I first started practicing over 12 years ago at Good Sam Hospital.


Maybe you don't yet know me.  Allow me to tell you a little something about myself.  Born and raised on Long Island, I attended medical school at Cornell University and after becoming a board certified radiologist, I finished my training with a fellowship subspecialty degree in breast imaging and intervention at New York University Hospital. I have spent the past 12 years or so honing my skills and spent most of my time performing clinical work including mammography, breast sonography, breast MRI, as well as perfecting non-surgical interventional procedures (breast biopsy work) to arrive at a diagnosis.

Those patients who know me will tell you that I follow one very basic belief: I care what happens to you.

I have decided to finally re-join the private practice sector of medicine on Long Island. I did this for several important reasons. The most important reason was that many of my patients could not come to me due to insurance restrictions. Along the same vein, I believe that many women on Long Island to this day are still being underserved by medicine.  I wish to change that by offering my services and expertise through several hospital breast centers that will take your insurance.

Where you can find me: I can be found working at Women's Health Center at Huntington Hospital and at the Brookhaven Women's Imaging Center in East Patchogue.  Both centers are beautifully appointed, designed with the patient in mind, MQSA certified, staffed with very talented and licensed technologists, and contain state- of-the-art equipment including digital mammography and breast MRI. 

For those living in Nassau and Western Suffolk County, NY: Call the Women's Health Center at Huntington Hospital for an appointment at 631-351-2564

For those living in Eastern Suffolk County, NY: Call the Brookhaven Women's Imaging Center for an appointment at 631-654-7108

For those who need my immediate attention: Pat at the office of S&D Medical Group at 914-666-2220 always knows how to find me.
