I offer a variety of treatment options to control and correct foot and ankle problems. I have special training to handle the complex biomechanics and specialized surgical techniques involved with the foot and ankle. I have advanced training for complex ankle and rearfoot deformities as well as fracture care for the foot and ankle. I pride myself in offering a variety of conservative and surgical options available to my patients. I try to create a patient-physician relationship that is open and based on respect and trust to allow for excellent outcomes.
