I am a board eligible foot and ankle orthopedic surgeon. I provide care for patients experiencing foot and/or ankle pain and discomfort from a variety of reasons. This ranges from bunions and hammer toes, to severe deformity from midfoot or ankle arthritis.

My expertise is in treating bunions, hammertoes, flat feet and high arches, fractures, tendonitis, ankle instability, as well as arthritis of the foot and ankle. When possible, I try to take a conservative approach first, focused on prevention of pain or injury. I have extensive training in foot and ankle surgery under the leaders in the field, allowing me to successfully perform ankle replacement surgery, fusions of the ankle and foot, and minimally invasive surgery including minimally invasive bunion correction, amongst other procedures. I also have a special interest in the care and treatment of dancers.

In my personal time, I enjoy fitness and dance. I started dancing when I was three years old and trained at the University of Arizona as well as with the Radio City Rockettes, and the Joffrey Ballet. I have kept dance (primarily ballet, tap and jazz), a part of my life ever since, including during my time at medical school and residency in New York City. I also enjoy walking my golden retriever, yoga, singing, and knitting!

I have authored articles appearing in numerous peer-reviewed journals, and collaborated on 20 national and international presentations.
