Clinical Interests
I evaluate and treat a wide range of conditions and injuries involving the hand, wrist, and elbow. Specific conditions include but are not limited to carpal tunnel syndrome, cubital tunnel syndrome, trigger fingers, fractures of the hand, wrist, and elbow, chronic or acute tendon or nerve injuries, and rheumatoid arthritis. I manage these medical conditions both non-operatively and surgically based on what is in your best interest.

Care Philosophy
Injuries to the upper extremity can have a profound effect on one’s ability to perform their daily activities. I believe that it is my privilege to work with you to correctly identify your ailment and create a treatment plan that will allow you to get back to your busy life in a safe and efficient manor. My team and I look forward to having the opportunity to help you get back to being you.

Personal Interests
My family and I enjoy riding bikes, playing soccer, hiking, skiing, mastering our sidewalk chalk art, or just about anything else outside. We are excited to be a part of the Denver community.
