Best Dressing and Debridement of Wound or Infection Doctors in Maplewood, MN

My father is an internal medicine physician. I grew up seeing how much joy he got from caring for patients. He was definitely my role model and I aspire to emulate his compassion for his patients and passion for the field and science of medicine. A kind person who cares about their problem, will listen to their concerns, educate them about their ailment and provide options for treatment.

I am a plastic surgeon with fellowship training in upper extremity surgery, peripheral nerve surgery and microsurgery. My subspecialty expertise focuses on fixing broken bones of the hand and wrist, treating arthritis of the hand and wrist, and caring for nerve injuries, such as carpal tunnel syndrome. I also perform reconstructive surgery throughout the entire body. I enjoy plastic surgery because I can use my skills and creativity to improve people's quality of life. Patients are often referred because their problems are unique and challenging and require an individualized approach. I carefully listen to patients and partner with them to develop a treatment plan that is right for them.

As an orthopedic surgeon with fellowship training in sports medicine, I provide complete care of shoulder, hip and knee conditions. Over the past 20 years, I have cared for athletes at all levels high school, collegiate and professional. I have also spent many hours on the sidelines providing medical coverage. My favorite conditions to treat are hip arthritis using a minimally invasive direct anterior approach to hip replacement, ACL and meniscus injuries, arthritis of the knee and rotator cuff tears. My goal is to eliminate pain and restore function to allow my patients to live their lives to the fullest.
