Minimally invasive solutions mean less pain and quicker recovery
“I focus on arthroscopy and other minimally invasive solutions. These usually involve less pain, less scarring and shorter recovery times. I also like doing hip and knee reconstructions to give people back their mobility. My other interests include taking care of kids with orthopedic problems and trauma care.”

Listening and providing education to patients
“I enjoy listening to patients, then providing them with information that
empowers them to make good decisions about their health. Talking comes easily for me, and it is fun, but listening to patients is what leads to better decisions and improved quality of life.”
