Care philosophy

I view each patient as an active participant in their care, and I work with them to create a treatment plan that aligns with their goals. My focus is on educating patients about their musculoskeletal condition and discussing options that can help them return to their desired activity level in a responsible and informed way. I strive to ensure patients feel supported as we make decisions together about their recovery.
