Bio
I am a board certified hand surgeon specializing in minimally invasive hand & peripheral nerve surgery. We have developed the EndoTech® endoscopic hand surgery instrumentation which is used to treat common conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome, tendinitis, tennis elbow and others using the most advanced and smaller cameras possible. These new techniques cause the least amount of trauma and enable the quickest recovery time without the complications seen with other endoscopic procedures. We also specialize in regenerative medical procedures such as arthroscopic joint reconstruction using stem cell techniques.
SpecialtiesDoctors may have more than one area of specialty interest. Board certification in a specialty area means the doctor has completed formal training and has practice experience in that specialty, and has passed the certification examination from the corresponding accredited medical specialty board.
