Biography:

I was born and raised  in  New York City, attending a Greek-American Parochial School and Stuyvesant High School.  I then went  to Columbia College and received my B.A. in 1975.  I graduated Cornell University Medical College in 1980 and did my Pediatric Residency at The New York Hospital.  I spent the following year as Chief Resident in Pediatrics at The New York Hospital.  In 1986  I moved to Stamford with my wife, Lisa, and our 2 month old son, Michael.  I joined Stamford Pediatrics in April 1986.  Lisa and I had two more children, Christopher born in 1987 and Nicole in 1990.  All three of our children attended Roxbury Elementary School, Cloonan Middle School and Westhill High School. Michael attends Sacred Heart University while Christopher is at George Washington University.  Nicole is graduating this year and in the midst of deciding where to go to college next year.  Growing up in New York I am a life long NY Mets fan and remain a season ticket holder of the NY Rangers. When the weather is warm and I'm not in the office you'll usually find me on a golf course.
