A graduate of Long Island University, Michael has been practicing since 1998. Michael became a Physician Assistant because of his interest in medicine, and because he wanted a career that would allow him to help others. Michael enjoys practicing in Gastroenterology, which allows him to work with patients that have a wide range of disorders, including those with liver disease. Michael believes the patient should play a role in the decision-making process, and he works hard to educate them about their condition. “I always strive to listen carefully to my patients, for I find that’s essential to providing good care,” he explains. In his spare time, Michael enjoys staying active and enjoying the many amenities that New England offers.
