I was born in Sri Lanka, formerly called Ceylon, an island in the southern tip of India. After graduating from the University of Ceylon, Colombo, Medical School in 1972, I did some of my post-graduate training in St. Bartholomew's Hospital Surgical Professorial Unit and became a fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons England (FRCS). My move to the United States resulted in me completing my training in head and neck surgery at Loma Linda University School of Medicine in 1985. I joined Kaiser Permanente in 1985 as a head and neck surgeon. Since 2004, I have been the area medical director for the Riverside service area. I am board-certified in head & neck surgery and quality management. My interests include international travel, Antiquarian book collection, Kaiser Permanente memorabilia, and Judaica. I also enjoy the Bible and being a United Methodist very much. My wife and I live in Southern California. We have two children, a daughter and a son, both of whom I am proud to say are medical students.
