Summary
- I am a board certified orthopaedic trauma surgeon. I have further sub-specialization in deformity correction, non-unions, mal-unions, post-traumatic reconstruction and osteomyelitis. I have a strong interest in research and am the director of orthopaedic trauma research at the University of Kentucky. We have several ongoing studies supported by multiple competitive grants. I enjoy taking care of some of the more difficult orthopaedic conditions to treat. I treat both adults and children.
