Care Philosophy: I chose Orthopaedic Surgery because it is incredibly rewarding to restore another human being's function and quality of life through the skill of my own hands. My approach to patient care has always been to treat patients as if they were my own family or friends who need surgery. My strength as a physician is completely relating to patients, making them laugh, making them comfortable, explaining every detail to them, and making it easy for them to be confident in me and making them know I will always be there for them. In my spare time I like to hang out with family and friends, ski, play tennis, and read.
