Biography
In my spare time, I enjoy playing soccer, traveling and spending time with wife and 6 children. In my daily travels I enjoy listening to Audiobooks and enjoy history.
Upon completion of my Sports Medicine Fellowship- I relocated to the Midwest and began my practice in Iowa. I cover several Critical Access hospitals and enjoy working in rural communities. At times it can be challenging but I find it very rewarding providing big city practices closer to home. We strive in staying current with the most up -to- date proven advances and best practices in Orthopedics. We provide specialty procedures like Iovera(cryanalgesia) prior to total knee replacements. We pride ourselves in bringing Quality Care Close to Home.
