This training gave her a foundation in both internal medicine and diseases of the digestive system. Her current NYC Health + Hospitals profile lists gastroenterology and internal medicine as her specialties.

Work With Digestive Motility Disorders

Gastrointestinal motility care focuses on problems that affect the movement of food and waste through the digestive tract. These disorders may involve the esophagus, stomach, intestines, rectum, or pelvic floor muscles.

She has also been associated with the development of a gastrointestinal motility program at Stony Brook.
