Summary

  • Conditions treated: General limb fractures, peri-articular fractures, complex fractures of the pelvis and acetabulum (hip socket), peri-prosthetic fractures, and the treatment of multiple injured patients. My practice also includes hip and knee osteoarthritis.

    My medical experiences have all been in level I trauma centers, taking care of severely injured patients. It is my mission to provide my patients the same excellent orthopaedic care that I would offer to a member of my family. No one plans to be injured in an accident. I take very seriously the responsibility of providing compassionate, state of the art, care to my patients, in their unanticipated time of need.
