Overview

Philosophy of care | My goal is to impart knowledge and review the available treatment options for patients suffering from spine-related pain.

Compassion, professionalism and dedication drive my care and team collaboration. | Why I entered medicine | Being a physician has been a childhood dream come true. I’ve always wanted to have a positive and profound impact on others. My personal interests in health and wellness transformed into professional pursuits as I became a physician in a specialty that focuses on optimizing overall function and well-being. | Personal interests | I enjoy exploring the great outdoors, cooking/eating and traveling with family, friends and my beloved dogs. | Image | Lehigh Valley Hospital is ranked 25th in the country for orthopedic care on the 2025-2026 U.S. News & World Report Best Hospitals list.
