About Me

I am an orthopedic surgeon specializing in spinal treatments at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. I regularly treat conditions such as chronic back pain, osteoarthritis, spinal cord compression, and other spinal diseases.

My extensive training in orthopedic and neurosurgical spine care prepared me to handle any spine disorder. I have the skill to perform everything from simple procedures and minimally- invasive surgeries, as well as more complex revision spine surgeries.?

I have a special interest in spine and back deformities. My primary research is focused on treatment options that will improve outcomes for patients with various degenerative and traumatic spine conditions.

My patients can rely on me to deliver compassionate, individualized care that is tailored to their specific needs, and I treat all of my patients as I would my own family. It’s a privilege to see my patients experience joy and happiness again after their spinal ailments have been relieved. Seeing their quality of life improve fuels my passion and is a reminder of why I love being a doctor and a spine surgeon.

I also serve as an assistant professor of clinical orthopedics at The Ohio State University College of Medicine. I love teaching medical students and residents and I am very passionate about it. I believe sharing knowledge not only benefits the student, but also boosts the teacher’s confidence and skills, as well. That is one of the many benefits of working at an academic medical center like Ohio State. The healthy, compassionate, competitive environment motivates me to excel and keeps the work enjoyable.

When I’m not working, I enjoy spending quality time with my family. I also like to travel whenever I’m able.?
