I am here to help each patient with their prob­lem, whether it be sur­gi­cal or non-sur­gi­cal. Many spine prob­lems can be com­plex, oth­ers are sim­ple. With 29 years of expe­ri­ence, I will lend a hand to those in need. By stay­ing in touch with state of the art tech­nol­o­gy blend­ed with a car­ing approach, we strive to give each and every patient the best expe­ri­ence possible.
