Overview
I am a physical medicine and rehabilitation physician who specializes in pain management. I treat a variety of both acute and chronic conditions including: back and neck pain, musculoskeletal pain, sacroiliac joint dysfunction, sports injuries, neuromuscular pain, cancer pain, chronic abdominal and pelvic pain, fibromyalgia, chronic pain syndrome, complex regional pain syndrome, neuropathic pain, and headache. I believe in treating patients from a multidisciplinary approach focusing on both medical management and rehabilitation to help people improve their overall daily function. I enjoy working with a team of healthcare providers including rehabilitation therapists and health psychologists. I perform minimally invasive spinal injections, spinal cord stimulators, peripheral joint and trigger point injections, acupuncture, botulinum toxin injections, and osteopathic manipulative therapy. Prior to medical school, I practiced as a licensed physical therapist treating both musculoskeletal and chronic pain conditions. I continue to stay active in the community working with athletes especially endurance athletes in the cross-country ski community.
