Summary

I diagnose and treat all disorders of the spine. I believe that the majority of spine disorders can be cured with conservative therapy and therefore I work closely with my partners and collegues in pain management, physical therapy and chiropractic care. Only after a patient has failed conservative therapy do they become a candidate for a more invasive treatment such as surgical intervention. I have been surgically treating patients with spinal disorders for over 20 years and have, as a result, a great depth of experience. I would be happy to discuss your case with you at any time.
