Brief Intro

I am passionate about returning function to my patients and enabling them to return to the activities in life that they enjoy. My philosophy is to treat my patients as individuals and help them reach their treatment goals through operative and non-operative treatment strategies. This includes minimally invasive treatment options for the shoulder, elbow, and knee, from adolescents to patients in their later years. I am particularly interested in shoulder repair and reconstruction surgeries, ligament reconstruction, and cartilage preservation and restoration of the knee. I am a fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeon specializing in sports and shoulder surgery. During my training, I had the pleasure of serving as a team surgeon for the University of Michigan, including the 2023 National Championship U of M Football team. I have published multiple manuscripts and book chapters on the treatment of knee and shoulder pathologies. I was raised in New Jersey and attended Pennsylvania State University for my undergraduate education. I received my medical degree from Rutgers – New Jersey Medical School. Following medical school, I completed my residency training in orthopedic surgery at NYU Langone – Hospital for Joint Diseases, which is consistently ranked in the top five residency training programs in the country. I furthered my specialization sports and shoulder surgery specialization at The University of Michigan. Beyond work, I enjoy spending time with my wife and child, following college football, playing golf and traveling.
