Advanced in Volkmann Contracture

Overview

Philosophy of care | I help primary care physicians, specialists and their patients determine the best way to recover from surgery, injury or illness and return home. Such decisions often require input from several sources, including the patient and their family. | Why I entered medicine | Several members of my family had major impairments and disabilities, and I saw at an early age how health care providers supported their determination to be as independent as possible. The passion these clinicians exhibited was inspiring, showing me how non-traditional care can improve lives despite permanent impairment. | Community involvement | I serve on several educational and hospital boards and committees. I’m program director for the new Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation residency. I’m involved with the LVHN Impact Athletes program to develop a positive impact on area youth and children with special needs using high-level college athletes. | Personal interests | I spend as much time with my family and close friends as possible. I also enjoy Penn State athletics, especially football. It’s simple but fulfilling.
