About me

My goal is to relieve patients' spine-related pain and disability with the least invasive solution. Active patient participation is a key part of the process. Together, we create a treatment plan that custom fits the patient both medically and personally. The least invasive procedure is often non-surgical. When surgery is necessary, however, my advanced neurosurgery and orthopaedic training in spine allow me to offer the full breadth of surgical techniques. This helps ensure my patients receive the best care possible.
