Radiculopathy near Inver Grove Heights, MN

Care Philosophy: I am an orthopedic surgeon specializing in hip and knee replacement, as well as surgical fixation of bone fractures. I am committed to providing compassionate care to my patients based on sound medical knowledge, good clinical judgment and experience. I am a critical thinker who believes that the key to good patient outcomes and great satisfaction is effective communication and mutual trust between the patient and the physician. My ultimate goal from every encounter is shared decision making and a treatment plan that incorporates the patient's needs, preferences and beliefs.

Care Philosophy: I enjoy caring for patients who have a wide variety of bone, joint and muscle problems and have a special interest in patients who have hip and knee arthritis. My goal is to improve my patients' quality of life by relieving pain and returning them to the highest level of function possible, with a focus on patient-centered care. I focus on primary total hip and knee replacements, partial knee replacements, and complex revision hip and knee replacements. I have completed additional subspecialty training in joint replacement surgery and had the opportunity to train at the #1 ranked hospital for orthopedics in the country. Not only do I strive to be an excellent technical surgeon, but I also want to provide my patients with a comfortable environment where they feel that they are truly listened to and are treated with care, compassion and respect. I am happy to have the opportunity to return to practice in the Twin Cities, where I grew up, and to be closer to my family. Outside of orthopedic surgery, I enjoy spending time with my family, cooking, photography and Pilates!
