He worked with Charles Miller, MD to establish the Mount Sinai Liver Transplant Program in 1988, and since then has devoted his career to hepatobiliary surgery and transplantation.
Over the years he has served as Director of Pediatric and Adult Liver Transplantation, and more recently has focused on liver cancer.

He has published over 300 papers in peer-reviewed journals, as well as 21 book chapters.
