About Me

I specialize in the comprehensive care of shoulder and elbow conditions, including arthritis, rotator cuff tears, tendon injuries, fractures, and instability. I provide both minimally-invasive arthroscopic and open surgical options, as well as nonsurgical treatments tailored to each patient's needs.

I have expertise in handling complex problems such as revision surgery, bone loss, irreparable tendon tears, and cases where prior treatments have not been successful.

"I'm passionate about helping patients with shoulder and elbow problems return to the activities they love."

My approach is rooted in evidence-based medicine and a commitment to advancing care through research, innovation, and the development of new surgical techniques and implants. What I enjoy most is helping patients regain function and return to the activities that matter most in their lives.
