Overview
I am a physician who specializes in physical medicine and rehabilitation, electrodiagnostic medicine and sports medicine. My practice focuses on the non-operative management of patients with painful spinal, musculoskeletal and neurological conditions. I endeavor to help patients navigate through the various conservative treatment options available to them such as physical therapy and exercise, non-narcotic medication management and fluoroscopic and ultrasound guided injections. I work collaboratively with my colleagues in Orthopedic and Neurosurgery to provide the best possible care to my patients.
