Personally Speaking
I came to orthopedics and sports medicine through a variety of personal and family experiences. I find helping people stay active and keep moving to be both rewarding and enjoyable.
I try to treat my patients like friends and family. I look at what activities they do or want to do, and try to figure out how to get them feeling better so that they can keep performing those activities. As an orthopedist, this involves considering anatomical issues, activity levels, and how people move through their days and lives and how I can help them with all three.
I enjoy communicating my thoughts and treatment plans with my patients as clearly as I can. I also enjoy working together with my patients to come up with plans we can both be on board with to keep them moving, feeling better, and happy.
I enjoy spending time with my two daughters and remaining active myself. I enjoy Cross-Fit and soccer in particular, as well as spending time with family and friends.
