Yes, this doctor is accepting new patients

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.”
