New & Established Patients Call

I believe in a collaborative and patient-centered approach to foot and ankle care. I listen carefully to my patients' concerns and work closely with them to create an individualized treatment plan that is tailored to their specific needs. Many orthopaedic conditions can be treated nonoperatively, but sometimes surgery is the most reasonable option. When that time comes, as a fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeon, I use cutting-edge technology and innovative techniques to get my patients back to their normal life as quickly and safely as possible.
