Director of the Family Foot & Ankle Specialists
"I like to treat everyone including children, active adults and
the elderly. The feet are so important for maintaining our lifestyles.
My goal is to treat people gently and quickly, so they can get back
to their activities as soon as possible. It's my philosophy that people
want to be on, not off their feet, and that's how I approach the treatment
of their problem."
Highly Qualified
"I take great pride in being a doctor, and in doing my best
for my patients. That's why I feel it's so important to be able
to meet the requirements for membership in outstanding professional
organizations. Membership also provides an opportunity for me to
share experiences with colleagues, and hopefully better our profession."
