About me

Thanks for your interest in my Web page. I hope we have the opportunity to help you if you need surgery. Surgery can be scary, and seeing a doctor to find out if you need it can be frightening and a complicated process. Fortunately, most problems do not need surgery. We live in a time, however, when surgery can make dramatic differences for some patients. My job is to help you determine if surgery is your best option and then arrange for your expert surgical care.

Biography

I grew up in the Midwest, went to medical school at Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons in New York, did my orthopedic residency at the University of Hawaii, and a fellowship year of shoulder and elbow surgery in Seattle. I've moved around a lot through my training and lived in some great cities, but found myself settled in Los Angeles at here at Kaiser Permanente. This was the place that allowed me to best achieve my clinical and research goals.

About my practice

My main interests are in shoulder and elbow reconstructive surgery with particular interests in shoulder replacements and treating children with paralytic conditions involving the shoulder. The blend of clinical work, research, and teaching has made my career deeply rewarding. It is a great privilege to help others with the extraordinary technology medicine has to offer today, and then contribute to its advancement.

How I thrive

This is an ongoing process. Watching my daughter grow up has taken the helm of all my personal interests, as many parents can appreciate. My wife is my best friend. Moderate exercise, theater and music, and laughing with good friends fill in the rest.
