Biography
I am an orthopedic surgeon with broad expertise in treating a variety of musculoskeletal conditions. I often see patients who are experiencing pain in their shoulders, knees and legs. I also address arthritis and care for patients who have suffered sports-related injuries.
My patients can trust that I will do all I can to help them return to the activities they love. Treatment plans are always customized based on the individual’s goals and values.
