Why did I choose Otolaryngology? I really enjoy the challenge of balancing form and function in a variety of ENT operations. There’s a great mix of surgery and medicine with a breadth of different subspecialties. As a rapidly advancing surgical field, you can easily find an abundance of fantastic research and technological innovation. Otolaryngologists are all funny and easygoing people that make patients laugh during their care!
Why McMaster Otolaryngology? Incredible mentors and support from staff, excellent surgical training, fun family of residents, and freedom to pursue your interests. Couldn’t be happier to be at McMaster…again!
ENT Interests: Everything so far... what's not to like?
Other Interests: Spending time with family and friends, traveling, photography, fitness, skiing,
exploring and enjoying food!
