I am a pediatric neurologist and neuroimmunologist who specializes in seeing pediatric patients with neuroimmunological disorders, such as demyelinating diseases and others. I completed fellowship training in multiple sclerosis and neuroimmunological disorders at the University of Michigan and a three month observership at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia in their Pediatric Neuroimmunology department.

Types of demyelinating diseases include:
Multiple sclerosis (MS)
Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody-Associated Disease (MOGAD)
Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD)
Transverse Myelitis
Optic Neuritis
Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis (ADEM)
Clinically Isolated Syndrome (CIS)
Radiologically Isolated Syndrome (RIS)

Outside of demyelinating disorders, there are other neuro-immunological disorders such as:
Autoimmune Encephalitis
Opsoclonus-Myoclonus-Ataxia Syndrome (OMAS/OMS)
Central Nervous System Vasculitis/Primary Angiitis of the Central Nervous System (PACNS)
Lupus Cerebritis
Neurosarcoidosis
Hashimoto’s Encephalopathy
Neuro-Behcet’s
Neuro-Sjogren’s
Acute Flaccid Myelitis (This is an infectious disorder, not a neuro-immune disorder, but the Pediatric Neuroimmunology Clinic is still typically involved in the evaluation and management of this disorder.)

I am interested in investigating the utility of testing for neuro-immunological disorders as well as treatments for neuro-immunological disorders and epilepsy in pediatric patients.
