Care Philosophy: Children are not small adults and need specialized pediatric care. I treat every child as if they were my own, partnering with their parents to understand their needs and use my expertise to facilitate their return to full activity.

Care Philosophy: My main goal is to focus on what you want to be able to do in your life- whether it is playing with your children or being able to play golf without as much pain. I believe that you, the patient, deserve to learn what is going on in your body so you can make the best decision. What is right for one patient may not be right for another. I want my patients to choose how aggressive or conservative to be and help me decide on the most appropriate treatment plan.
