Overview
"Philosophy of care | Education provides patients the power to make informed decisions about their health care and what is best for them. I believe in fully educating my patients to ensure they are comfortable with the treatment plans we establish and to help them achieve their best possible outcomes. | Why I entered medicine | I became interested in podiatry after having to see one when I was a child and as a young adult. Foot and ankle conditions can be debilitating. Helping someone overcome such conditions through surgical and non-surgical approaches provides me with the utmost satisfaction and happiness. | Community involvement | I have participated in local seminars on preventive foot and ankle care as well as the ""Walk with a Doc"" program. I have always been passionate about community service. I developed a committee during my tenure at Temple School of Podiatric Medicine that led to much needed community engagement in Philadelphia. I also strive to stay involved in my church community. | Personal interests | My personal interests are largely centered around my beautiful children, husband and family. We love to spend time outdoors, travel and explore. | Image | Lehigh Valley Hospital is ranked 25th in the country for orthopedic care on the 2025-2026 U.S. News & World Report Best Hospitals list. Our team of more than 200 orthopedic specialists provide award-winning, nationally-recognized care with experience, expertise and leading-edge technology. | ".
