Philosophy of care | I feel that the body is an amazing structure with the unique ability to heal most injuries and diseases. I view surgery as a way to assist the body in healing itself by removing disease and infection or providing a framework for which the body can heal. | Why I entered medicine | Surgery was always a natural fit for me. I am able to combine my technical skills and knowledge of the body to create immediate results, often increasing the quality of life for people. | Personal interests | I enjoy spending time with my wife and my boys boating, playing a variety of sports and going ice skating.
