About Me
I am passionate about providing care that is individualized to the patient to maximize function and recovery, through both surgical and non-surgical methods. Education is key to my practice, making sure that no questions are left unanswered and that patients truly understand their disease, injury, and treatment options. My zest for education extends to physicians as well, as I am heavily involved in education of the next generation of orthopaedic and plastic surgery residents and fellows. I am one of the associate program directors for the orthopaedic surgery residency and currently am the interim division chief of hand surgery. My goal is to provide safe, effective, advanced care to all my patients.

My provider could easily be a better teacher than half the professors at [...]. When I left appointments I felt very knowledgeable about my health condition, with her explaining not only what was wrong but why it was wrong in great detail that was easy to understand. While I am not a nursing student, I walked away from each appointment feeling well versed in nursing criteria.
