Orthopaedic Surgery

Orthopaedic surgery is an incredibly rewarding field. We have many surgical and non-surgical solutions that can help patients improve their function. Often we can help them regain their mobility and independence.

My goal is to help patients make informed decisions about their care, get the health care outcomes they desire, and build lasting relationships with them. By working as a team, we can identify their health care goals and the best ways to achieve them.

The most rewarding aspect of my job is getting to know my patients and giving them the help they need when they need it most.
