Overview

I have been blessed with the opportunity to serve my community. I specialize in treating fractures of the upper and lower extremity as well as in the pelvis/acetabulum and periarticular injuries. I love to manage the most challenging cases for patients, including complex fracture revision surgery, nonunion, malunion, and osteomyelitis. In addition, I also specialize in adult limb lengthening and deformity correction. I believe in the restoration of anatomy after injury using biomechanical principles and minimally invasive techniques for maximum clinical benefit to the patient. My surgeries utilize the most cutting-edge technology, techniques, and implants to create the best possible outcome for my patients. My goal is to return my patients to their pre-injury lifestyle and promote mental, physical, and spiritual wellness.

I specialize in the treatment of complex sacral, lumbar, thoracic, and cervical spinal disorders in adults using less invasive and open techniques. I have a special interest in the treatment of spinal deformity affecting the cervical or thoracolumbar spine and managing spinal trauma. I aim to care for patients through close collaboration, taking my time to ensure that everyone understands their particular condition and helping each individual make the treatment decision that is right for them and their particular circumstances. Every patient is a person with their own needs and wants, and so I treat each as I would like to be treated at every stage. My team and I are here to help patients with concerns and questions before, during, and after treatment.
