Research Interests
I am an Associate Professor of Urology at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine with a clinical and research focus on Male Sexual Medicine and Surgery. I graduated from Mercer University with a degree in Biomedical Engineering. I completed my medical degree from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and then went on to complete a residency in Urologic Surgery at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. After finishing a 2-year fellowship at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in Sexual Medicine and Surgery, I joined the faculty at the Lahey Clinic in Massachusetts before joining the faculty at Northwestern in 2016. In addition to serving as an Associate Professor at the Feinberg School of Medicine, I am the Co-Director of the Andrology Fellowship. I have been actively involved as a leader in numerous national and international organizations. I am an Associate Editor of the Journal of Sexual Medicine, as well as a reviewer for numerous peer-reviewed journals. I am the Treasurer of the Sexual Medicine Society of North America (SMSNA) and an active committee member of the International Society for Sexual Medicine (ISSM). I also serve as a section leader on the Core Curriculum Committee of the American Urologic Association (AUA) and am a member of the National Medical Association (NMA).
I am a board-certified urologist and microsurgeon who specializes in the management of erectile dysfunction, Peyronie's disease, disorders of ejaculation and orgasm, Vasectomy, penile prosthesis implantation, and microsurgical varicocele repair. I treat hypogonadism (low testosterone) associated with comorbid conditions and congenital issues.
