Overview

As a sports medicine doctor, I treat musculoskeletal injuries and pain, manage nutritional and training imbalances, and address concerns that individuals may have, whether they are wanting to be more active or are a competitive athlete. I enjoy connecting with patients and hearing their stories. As someone who came to athletics later in life, I appreciate helping others take on a new challenge and overcome any hurdles that may appear.
