Practice Style

  • I will strive to create a solid working relationship with my patients to allow them to regain the maximum function after repair of their injury. Patients require a special relationship with the health care team to ensure return to activity which involves time consuming discussion in the office. Although this can create increased waiting time at appointments for the next patient, I would like to think everyone would want the same courtesy and understand that we are not "on the clock".
