Care Philosophy
I chose orthopedics and sports medicine as my specialty because I enjoy helping my patients return to the activities and sports they love. My approach to care is to understand my patients’ goals and combine my expertise with the latest noninvasive or surgical techniques to provide a comprehensive treatment plan that is tailored to each individual. Seeing my patients resume their desired level of activity or fully recover from an injury is very rewarding. I feel very fortunate that every day I get to help athletes and patients pursuing their passion or hobby regain function and mobility and help solve their orthopedic issues.
