About
Philosophy of care
My philosophy of care is to optimize your function with a non-operative approach. Most often this means using therapeutic exercises, medications and local injections in a limited fashion and in consultation with other providers/surgeons as appropriate.
Why I entered medicine
I want to help people who need help. The human body and how it works was – and is still – the most intriguing and interesting topic of all.
Community involvement
I enjoy participating in activities with my church and church worship.
Personal interests
I enjoy activities like running, cycling, traveling and, when I am home, I enjoy cooking.
