About Me

As a physician assistant at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, I specialize in sports medicine knee surgery. I primarily see patients for knee pain, arthritis in the knee(s), meniscus tears, ACL tears and patellar dislocation. I treat each of my patients as if they are a family member by listening to them, educating them and helping them reach their ideal quality of life again.

At Ohio State, it’s clear that our physicians are inspired by the work and continue to learn their craft as the knowledge and tools implemented in their medical specialties continue to grow. They stay up to date with the latest research and perform the most cutting-edge surgeries and procedures.

In my free time, I enjoy golfing, including disc golf, as well as watching Ohio State basketball and football games.

    He was not the PA in the OR with me, but he knew exactly what my surgical history was and did an excellent job with my first post-op visit. Listened to my only concern and prescribed appropriately. Great care.
