General Info

I watched my father deliver babies, help his older patients age with dignity, and care for the people of our small town for all their years in between. I was inspired by his passion for his work, and I knew I wanted a career working with people in a meaningful way. The most rewarding part of my work is the relationships I develop with patients over time. It is a privilege to sit with patients and listen as they share with me their passions and their struggles. Helping my patients overcome injuries and conditions which are keeping them from the activities that bring them joy is extremely satisfying for me. I try to educate my patients so that they are able to participate in their medical decision-making. Their well-being comes first. Whether I can help an injured patient get back to the sport or activity they love, transition to a new chapter in their athletic life, or get back to or begin an active lifestyle, I feel that I have been helpful.
