Overview
I was born and raised in Florida, but fell in love with North Carolina when I attended Davidson College. I went to Duke for graduate school and put down roots in Durham. As an orthopaedic physician assistant, I take care of musculoskeletal concerns, ranging from the fingers to the toes. This can be joint pain, muscle aches, sports injuries, falls, and much more. I work closely with my patients to create care plans that are respectful of their obligations at home, work, and school. Members of my family have undergone orthopaedic surgery, so I understand the challenges on the road to recovery. I have seen the life-changing magic of orthopaedics. We help patients regain active, fulfilling lives. That’s why I love being an orthopaedic physician assistant. Outside of work, I am an avid coffee drinker and Disney films enthusiast. I am often found trying to convince my wife we need to visit Disney World as often as possible.
