About

Bio

<!--StartFragment--> I am a board-certified urologist with a recognized specialty in Male Reproductive Medicine and Microsurgery. I went into private practice in 2004 after an academic career that spanned 15 years, having served on the UNC faculty where I was a Clinical Professor of Surgery/Urology and assistant chief of the urology division. I am committed to providing the highest caliber care for all of my patients. Over the past two decades, I have built a reputation for practicing evidence-based medicine with integrity. I have a long history of working with local and regional reproductive endocrinologists, gynecologists, urologists, and primary care providers to provide couples comprehensive, state-of-the-art <em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Male</em> <em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Factor Infertility</em> diagnosis and treatment. I use the most innovative and effective procedures and surgical techniques. In fact, there are a number of practice areas like <em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">microsurgical vasectomy reversals, microsurgical varicocele repair, reconstructive surgery for obstructive azoospermia, surgical sperm harvesting, and no-scalpel vasectomies,</em> where I have more years of experience than any other urologist in North Carolina. I received my MD degree from The Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City, followed by a residency in urology at the University of South Florida Hospitals in Tampa. I went on to complete a <em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">nationally recognized</em> <em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">postdoctoral fellowship in Male Reproductive Medicine and Surgery</em> at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas. I have served as President of the Durham-Orange County Medical Society and the Carolina Urological Association, and am a charter member of The Society for the Study of Male Reproduction with the American Urological Association. I am an active member of The Society of Male Reproduction and Urology with The American Society Of Reproductive Medicine.
