About Me
Since childhood, I had an interest in science and biology. I took pre-medical courses in college, which prompted me to pursue a career in medicine. I decided to specialize in orthopedic surgery after experiencing the immediate gratification of helping patients with their specific problems. I realized that as an orthopedic surgeon, I would have the opportunity to improve people’s quality of life.
I see patients of all ages, who typically have orthopedic conditions that prevent them from participating in sports, work, or activities of daily life. I also take care of athletes of all levels and skill. I most often treat patients with shoulder, elbow, hip, and knee pain.
I utilize all resources and novel treatment modalities to avoid surgery whenever possible. When surgery is necessary, I perform shoulder, elbow, knee, and hip arthroscopy. Additionally, I perform total shoulder replacements. I work closely with our physical therapists to track our patients’ progress through their rehabilitation process. I also collaborate with athletic trainers in many of the local high schools to provide expert orthopedic care to the youth of our community.
Each person’s condition is unique, which is why I work with patients to develop tailored treatment plans based on their individual needs. I believe it is important to explore all nonoperative options and listen before we operate.
I am proud to be recognized as a fellow of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, the Arthroscopy Association of North America, and the American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine.
