Beyond Orthopedics

Outside of medicine, I enjoy spending time and traveling with my family, playing golf, and cycling. These interests give me an opportunity to recharge, stay active, and spend time with the people who matter most to me.

I believe those experiences also provide perspective in my work as a physician. Every patient has a life beyond their diagnosis—family, work, hobbies, and goals they hope to return to. Understanding what matters to each patient is an important part of helping them make thoughtful decisions about their orthopedic care.
