My approach to managing pain is to attempt to identify the pain generator using various diagnostic tests and/or procedures, then tailoring a treatment plan specific to the individual. I am compassionate, a good listener and have 26+ years of experience treating a wide variety of painful conditions.

Clinical Interests
My specific interests are in utilizing advanced interventional techniques for sometimes difficult to treat pain problems such as persistent spine/arm/leg pain after previous surgery. I also specialize in the treatment of vertebral and sacral compression fractures as well as treatment of spinal stenosis.
Personal Interests
In my time away from the office, I love spending time with my family. I enjoy most outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, water sports, skiing and golf.
