Writing, driving, lifting, and waving are activities we all take for granted. Each of these simple daily activities is possible because of the flexibility and versatility of our hands, forearms, and elbows.
The intricate design and the frequent use each day can make the upper extremity highly susceptible to injury and disease. Our fellowship-trained hand, wrist and elbow surgeons are experts in diagnosing and treating this complex and important part of your body. The Hand, Wrist & Elbow Center is staffed by orthopedic hand specialists and certified hand therapists, providing a multidisciplinary approach to the upper extremity.

Each patient and his or her condition is unique and I strive to ensure that the evaluation and treatment process is both engaging and educational for patients and their families. I am fortunate to be able to collaborate with colleagues from many disciplines – including orthopaedic surgery, plastic surgery, neurosurgery, neurology, oncology, pain management, hand / occupational/physical therapy – to provide the most comprehensive care possible for our patients.
In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and three daughters – pursuing activities such as golf, tennis, biking, sailing, and skiing. I am excited to go to work each day as a rest from keeping up with my family!
