Personal Statement

When you need treatment for a knee or shoulder injury, experience matters. In over 20 years of practice, I have not only practiced orthopedic surgery, I have been at its forefront. I have pioneered innovative, minimally invasive surgical techniques for knee and soft tissue injuries and conditions that can help you recover more quickly and resume normal activity faster. My vast background in treating athletes at the high school, college and professional level gives me the ability to develop a treatment plan that is personalized and effective. My treatment goal is to provide excellent patient care that will allow you to return to sports and the activities of daily life as quickly as possible.
