About

Philosophy of care

My philosophy is to get you back to the activities you enjoy as quickly as possible.

Why I entered medicine

I entered medicine to improve the health and quality of life of my patients. I specialized in joint replacement and revision surgery because of the unique challenges present in treating arthritis and deformity and the potential to help someone walk and function again.

Community involvement

I am a member of the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons, the American Academy of Orthopedics and the Pennsylvania Orthopedic Society.

Personal interests

I enjoy jazz and classical music, architecture and design, traveling, snowboarding, food and wine.
