Philosophy of Care
My mission is to provide a full range of orthopedic care to patients and remain at the forefront of orthopedic knowledge and techniques. My intention is to provide each patient with cost effective and respectful care with the goal of making a difference in the patients’ quality of life. I recognize that each patient is an individual with variable expectations and needs. Therefore, I strive to discuss all treatment options with the patient without bias so that we can decide on appropriate treatment for their individualized care.
