I am a fellowship trained orthopaedic spinal surgeon and am board eligible by the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery. I specialize in the treatment of diverse and complex spinal pathology. I have robust expertise in the treatment of degenerative conditions, spinal trauma, deformity, and scoliosis. I have a special interest in spinal infections and revision surgery. I incorporate all spinal surgical techniques including minimally invasive techniques, computer-assisted navigation, and robotic surgery. I have extensive experience in spinal surgical procedures including laminectomy, discectomy, fusion, motion-sparing surgery, and deformity correction throughout the entire spine. I also have a background in general orthopedic surgery including fracture fixation and arthroplasty.

I am committed to giving my patients the best care possible throughout every stage of treatment. Treatment is personalized to every individual, which will incorporate all appropriate nonoperative management prior to considering surgical intervention. My goal is to provide long-term improvement of your spine problem.

In my free time, I enjoy hiking and cooking.
