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.

His top areas of expertise are Hypermobile Joints and Scoliosis.

His clinical research consists of co-authoring 30 peer reviewed articles. MediFind looks at clinical research from the past 15 years.

Throughout my medical career, I have remained dedicated to improving my patients' quality of life. As a specialist in adult cervical and spinal deformity surgery, I understand the significant impact our interventions have on individuals suffering from debilitating pain and physical and mental health challenges. Spinal deformity surgery merges the complexities of spinal biomechanics with the needs of an aging population.
