Ages 12+
My training at Johns Hopkins taught me to empower patients, and help them better understand their spinal issues. When you know your condition, we can choose the best treatment together. I focus on excellent spine care, always starting with non-surgical options, and using advanced surgical intervention only when necessary. My goal is to tailor your treatment to help you experience life to the fullest.
