Radiculopathy near Crystal, MN

Care Philosophy: My passion for foot and ankle surgery stems from the ability to improve patients' quality of life and return to daily activities. It's important to remember that we are dealing with quality of life issues. Therefore, I support you, the patient, in driving the decision-making process for the path we take to improve your daily life. It's uncommon to face a condition in foot and ankle disorders in which a surgical intervention must be performed. I will inform you, educate you and answer your questions so you can make a well-informed decision that's right for you and your goals.

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: As an orthopedic surgeon with fellowship training in sports medicine, I provide complete care of shoulder, hip and knee conditions. Over the past 20 years, I have cared for athletes at all levels high school, collegiate and professional. I have also spent many hours on the sidelines providing medical coverage. My favorite conditions to treat are hip arthritis using a minimally invasive direct anterior approach to hip replacement, ACL and meniscus injuries, arthritis of the knee and rotator cuff tears. My goal is to eliminate pain and restore function to allow my patients to live their lives to the fullest.
