My practice style is to approach the treatment of chronic pain using multimodal therapies. I focus on treating the entire patient using a wide variety of treatment options including interventional procedures, physical rehabilitation, and appropriate use of various medications to achieve long lasting pain relief.

Clinical Interests
I enjoy working with patients to understand their pain and expectations for relief. I then try to use that understanding along with advanced treatments to meet those expectations and provide relief. Although I’m interested in helping treat a wide variety of pain, a large focus of my practice is on spine, nerve, and joint related pain.
Personal Interests
Outside the office, I enjoy spending time with my family exploring the city and traveling. When weather permits, I try to spend my time outdoors. I’m constantly working on my golf game (it’s a work in progress) and enjoy trail riding, tennis, and skiing.
