Care Philosophy: I strive to provide exceptional, straight forward care. I expect a patient to feel confident that they are in the right place and that I am personally interested in helping each patient. I clearly explain that rational and thought process of the diagnosis. I review the treatment options and the success of each plan. I encourage questions and want the patient to understand the treatment plan. Surgical procedures are clearly explained along with available options. State of the art treatment is available from the most advanced surgical instrumentation to advanced healing biological technology such as Platelet rich plasma and stem cells. Each decision is made as if I were treating a family member. Many of our local Physician's choose to send their patients and their families to this office. I truly enjoy my practice and I enjoy helping people.
