About
Philosophy of care
I make a point of treating my patients as I would treat my family.
Why I entered medicine
A man I very much looked up to got me interested in the medical field. That spark led to an expertise in arthroscopic surgery and sports medicine and some enjoyable opportunities. I have been a team physician for the former Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Red Barons, the Lehigh Valley IronPigs and the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Rail Riders.
