A lifetime of education from schools, mentors and my patients. I’ve always tried to put my patients at ease with a comforting personal approach. I understand that many orthopaedic problems I treat are especially difficult for patients to face. It’s important for me to be sensitive to my patient’s needs and compassionate in their care. I see patients with general orthopaedic problems and I have received additional training in Total Joint Replacements. Taking care of the patients that belong to the Spanish community is also a pleasure.I am able to speak to them in their own language and understand their culture.
