Philosophy of care | Treatment of my patients mirrors the osteopathic philosophy of treating the patient as a whole. Considerations must be made to a patient’s physical, mental and social situations to arrive at the best course of treatment and therefore the best possible outcome. | Why I entered medicine | Humans are inherently mobile creatures. Millions of years of adaptations to our environment have given us the ability to survive in the natural world. When we can’t move well, we become sick with chronic diseases and eventually succumb. I entered medicine with an interest only in orthopedic surgery. Preserving each patient’s ability to be mobile, to move and to experience the world without pain is my ultimate goal. | Community involvement | Over the years I have been involved with or supported multiple charities in the greater Hazleton area and abroad.

I strive to provide quality interventions and help return you back to your favorite activities as quickly and safely as possible. | Why I entered medicine | I enjoy educating and being an advocate for individuals. That plus my interest in the sciences and the human body made becoming a physician a great fit for me. It’s also been exciting: During residency I was an assistant physician to the Houston Texans, Houston Rockets, Houston Astros and Houston Dynamo professional teams. | Community involvement | I have participated in medical missions such as to Puerto Rico for Hurricane Maria disaster relief, and plan on continuing to be involved where there is need.
