About me

 My goal is to improve my patients' quality of life by helping them solve their hip and knee complaints. I am dedicated to providing comprehensive operative and non-operative care. My approach is to avoid surgery when possible and provide safe, effective surgery when necessary. I want my patients to feel empowered to participate in their orthopaedic treatment plans. I want to help my patients' achieve their functional goals and restore or maintain a healthy and happy active lifestyle. Joint replacements are effective surgeries that can transform people's lives from debilitated to nearly pain-free and it is an honor to provide this service to my community.

Insurance

Before scheduling your appointment, we recommend you contact your insurance company to verify that the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is included in your network. Your insurance company will also be able to inform you of any copayments, co–insurance, or deductibles that will be your responsibility. If you proceed in scheduling an appointment and your health insurance benefits do not participate with OHSU providers, your out of pocket liability may be higher. Visit the billing and insurance section of our site for more information.
