Summary

  • I am a board certified Orthopaedic Surgeon. I have subspecialty fellowship training in pediatric Orthopaedics and sports reconstructive surgery. I have a special interest in ACL reconstruction both in pediatric and older teen patients. I understand the demands of elite athletics from an athlete perspective and a medical perspective. I was and athlete on the United States national Ski Team on the World Cup circuit before becoming a surgeon. I also now work with the US Ski Team as a pool physician.
