Biography
“Orthopaedics is an exciting field with continual development of new treatments and technology. It gives me an opportunity to work with patients of all ages and perform a wide variety of procedures focused on different parts of the body. I enjoy the process of directly restoring function to another human being. I relish the continual refinement in surgical techniques and treatment methods for helping patients to a better quality of life. “I give my patients ample opportunity to explain their problems, concerns and hopes, encouraging them to be active participants in their care and advocate for their own best health. It leads to good outcomes when patients are better-educated and more active in their own healthcare decisions. I’m a willing listener and tenacious about identifying the cause of a problems even when it is not readily apparent. “Sometimes it takes a few visits to gather enough data and develop a good relationship with the patient to figure out the best way of helping them.”

i always have a great time with xray before and appointment after. My questions are answered and my treatment easy to follow and using the portal program makes it easy to see my next appointment and each time i have visited. I used the great valet service at the main hospital lobby. They park m y car and even wheel me to the clinic in m y wheelchair. when I am done with my appointment I call the front desk lobby and they wheel me back from the clinic to my waiting car at valet and off i go, until next appointment time.
