Through active listening and thoughtful questioning I try to provide quality compassionate care that takes the patient's life circumstances into account to create a treatment plan that has the greatest chance for success. For those that require surgery I trained at one of the elite surgical programs in the country and have continued to increase my education for the benefit of those I serve. I have lectured and published extensively on reconstructive surgery of the foot and ankle and continue to be active in resident education. I take the privilege of being able to provide care to others very seriously, and consider it an honor when one of our patients refers one of their friends or family to us demonstrating their confidence in us.
Through active listening and thoughtful questioning, we aim to deliver high-quality care that utilizes the most recent advancements in podiatric care. This includes both surgical and conservative foot and ankle care.
