Clinical Interests
My clinical interests include cervical and lumbar spine pathology. I manage cervical myelopathy, cervical stenosis, cervical radiculopathy, cervical disc herniations, lumbar spinal stenosis, lumbar radiculopathy, lumbar disc herniations, spondylolisthesis, deformity and spine trauma.
Care Philosophy
I aim to treat my patients holistically and comprehensively. From personal experience, I understand how much spine pathology impacts quality of life. I strive to provide the best care for each patient by determining how their symptoms affect them as an individual so that I can effectively diagnose and treat.
Personal Interests
In my spare time, I enjoy running, hiking, swimming and photographing mountainous landscapes. I live in Boulder, CO with my husband and cat.
