Personal Attention -                                                                                                                                                

As a solo practitioner I have been able to structure my practice to serve you better. I have made a deliberate decision to avoid the “factory” or “assembly line” model of most orthopedic offices. Your care will not be handed off to a “physician extender”. I see all my patients at every office visit. My goal is to give you the attention you deserve, and listen to all of your concerns. I give everyone the same care I would hope to receive for my family or myself.                                                                                                                                

Respecting your preferences -                                                                                                                                  

Despite the many exciting advancements in my specialty, there are still traditional and alternative treatments for orthopedic conditions that might work quite well. Although I often recommend one form of treatment over another, I also respect your preferences. I will inform you about the various options, and let you make the final decision regarding treatment.                                                                                                                            

Comprehensive care -                                                                                                                                             

During my several years of orthopedic training and over 20 years of private practice I have developed expertise in a wide variety of orthopedic conditions and injuries in patients of all ages. I do not work on spines (backs and necks), facial bones, or ribs, but I treat conditions and injuries to virtually all of the remaining musculoskeletal system. I am confident in my knowledge and skills and provide unsurpassed care in my specialty. Whether you are a child, an athlete, a weekend warrior, or a seasoned citizen, you will receive exceptional care at this office.                                                                                                                                  

State-of-the-art expertise -                                                                                                                                     

I am fortunate to have worked and trained with some of the true giants and innovators of orthopedic surgery. Additionally, I keep my skills sharpened with on-going seminars, training, reading, and research. The field of orthopedic surgery is dynamic and continually improving. It is a specialty that I truly love. My engineering background, and a fascination for things mechanical help to drive my interest. I am particularly involved in minimally invasive joint replacement, knee ligament reconstruction, joint/cartilage preservation and regeneration, advanced arthroscopic techniques, and new materials and biomaterials.
