Osteoarthritis of Hand near Plainfield, IN

Care Philosophy: I believe in a teamwork approach to care in which the patients and physician work together to achieve the best possible outcomes.

Care Philosophy: ``I like to form a partnership with my patients. I frequently tell them my job is to give you the treatment options, to help you understand what's going on with your body. From there I work to understand the issue, how it is affecting their life, and what their goals and aspirations are as that is a very important part of the decision-making process from an orthopedic standpoint.``

Care Philosophy: ``I focus on a team approach with my patients. I always tell my joint replacement patients that I have about an hour to do their hip or knee, that's about how long it takes. After that I'm their cheerleader. I'm controlling some of the aspects of their physical therapy but otherwise I'm just a friend that's trying to help them along. I also work to educate patients in the process, so they have the knowledge they need to fully understand their condition and how to improve it going forward.``
