Overview
I was drawn to Orthopaedic Sports Medicine because every day we get to part of a team that assists people in achieving their goals and returning to life, sports, or other activities that they enjoy. The goal of my practice is to facilitate return to activities after a variety of knee, shoulder, and other joint injuries. I also restore function and improve pain through shoulder replacements and partial knee replacements to help patients achieve their goals.
