Overview

As a Podiatrist, I believe that the patient deserves time, thoughtfulness, and kindness. I believe in keeping things simple when possible. I am a non-surgeon, rehabilitation specialist, within the field of foot and ankle care. My passion is in designing rehabilitation programs for my patients to successfully meet their goals. My love is bio mechanics, and I have designed, and work with many different types of foot orthotic devices. I personally make all my own orthotic devices.
