UPDATE!!!!!!!

Beginning November 1, 2024 I will be practicing at The Sonoran Foot and Ankle Institute.  I am excited to bring my practice to this organization, and to share my experience with the Greater Tucson Community.  

Welcome to my website.  This website is intended to provide information for patients researching foot and ankle surgery, and to provide information for my patients.

I have been in practice in Tucson since 2016.  After graduating from Rosalind Franklin University, I went on to do my surgical residency training at the Detroit Medical Center.  This is a 3-year, hands on and high volume program with a focus on reconstructive foot and ankle surgery, trauma, and management of hospitalized patients with multiple comorbidities.  I felt like the training I received in residency was excellent, but I wanted to focus my practice further, and so I went on to do a fellowship at the Florida Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Center.  It is in fellowship where I learned advanced foot and ankle surgical techniques including total ankle arthroplasty, complex hindfoot and ankle reconstruction, and arthroscopic approaches to ankle instability and related conditions.  

Bringing this training into my practice has been a rewarding experience for me and my patients.  Please take some time to explore the website.
