Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome PFPS near Dallas, TX

Care Philosophy: I enjoy interacting with infants, children, and adolescents, and I hope to make each clinic visit relaxed and comfortable for both the patient and the family members. My goal is to alleviate any worries or concerns and develop a treatment plan that is best for each child and their family. For those patients that need an operation, I provide a detailed explanation of the options, the surgery, and the care after the surgery. Ensuring the best outcome for your child is a group effort. Our team in both the clinic and the hospital genuinely enjoy taking care of our patients and we hope it shows when you come to see us.
