I enjoy orthopedic surgery tremendously and recognize that my job allows me to help people with significant pain and dysfunction. My approach with each and every patient is to make sure that I can explain the cause of the pain and offer the best possible solutions.
Throughout my training, I feel very fortunate to have trained with some of the best orthopedic surgeons in the nation. I also consider it a privilege that I can now teach the next generation of orthopedic residents with the latest techniques.
