Approach to Care
Providing complete care of the injured young athlete is my goal. I get the most satisfaction from helping young athletes return to the sports and activities that they love.
I was incredibly lucky to have two parents who both introduced me to medicine in different ways. My father is an internal medicine physician and my mother was a physical therapist. The complete care of the young injured athlete requires appropriate diagnosis, conservative treatment, sometimes surgical treatment, and appropriate rehabilitation. It's my mission to help young athletes and their families find the best individual treatment plan for their injury.
