About Us

 My philosophy, or approach to my patients is to firstly educate them as best possible. I try to clearly explain what I believe their diagnosis is. It is important to make their issues understandable so we can together decide the best course of action to improve their foot issue(s). I clearly describe and go over x-rays by actually showing and explaining the affected anatomy in clear, non medical terms. I will go through all ordered test results and explain how they can directly affect their particular foot problem. I try to always go through the available options and allow my patients to have input and aid in the decision process.   I find engaged, and educated patients achieve better overall outcomes.
I take a conservative approach in my practice of podiatry. I saw all too many times my colleagues prematurely going to the 'surgical option' before exhausting all non-surgical or conservative options first.  I was surgically trained and performed many hospital based surgeries for over 15 years, attaining Board Qualified status in foot surgery. Therefore, I can ably give second opinions about any proposed foot surgeries.  I have taken it upon myself to offer and explain all possible conservative options to patients without the pressure of rushing patients to the operating room; possibly resulting in a problem worse than the original issue.
