He's Amazing. There was a scheduling issue and I got the jist that his level of care almost annoyed people because her being thrown into a schedule can' slow things down for their office. But he didn't show that it was an inconvenience . He saw my 8 year old daughter anyways even though my appointment never got scheduled, but my daughter has back pain and we drove an hour and a half and most people would turn you away. But he came out to the waiting room himself (doctors never do this) and called her in the room and checked her out right away, walked her to the x ray room and he didn't care if he was inconveniencing anyone my daughter was the important factor to him not some schedule with names. It was amazing and made me feel very confident in his care. A PLUS. Which unfortunately is rare now days.
“In college, I switched to pre-med for my last two years. I knew I wanted to go into medicine. My father is an orthopedist, and I saw him and some of his partners work. I was fascinated by the surgical procedures.
“I am particularly interested in the complexities and function of the human spine. What I love most is being able to help people with spinal deformities such as scoliosis as well people who have suffered spinal trauma.”
