Personal Approach to Treating Patients:
I believe in a comprehensive approach to patient care beginning initially with non-operative modalities. The majority of degenerative conditions in the extremities and spine improve with interventions such as physical therapy, traction and properly selected injections. This helps patients return to their pre-injury level and improve their overall function. When these treatments do not succeed, I have strict surgical indications which lead to good clinical outcomes. I treat my patients as if they were part of my family.
