As a physician, I strongly believe patients make the best decisions when they are well informed. I therefore take time to educate my patients about their condition and the treatment options available, including my recommendations, so that together we can develop effective treatment plans. Upper extremity injuries, especially hand injuries that compromise grasp, can significantly impact basic activities of daily living, and seriously affect our interactions with others. My goal is to ensure that each patient achieves the best possible outcome that in most cases is non-operative treatment but can also require surgery.
I am a board-certified orthopedic surgeon specializing in the hand, wrist, forearm and elbow. I am well-versed in the latest treatment techniques for the many conditions that affect the hand, wrist, forearm and elbow. Having been trained at elite academic institutions, I completed a residency in orthopedic surgery at Temple University Hospital followed by fellowship training in upper extremity surgery at New York University.
I have also been trained to undertake complex surgical reconstructions for both acute and chronic problems. Currently, I am a candidate member in two prestigious organizations, the American Society for Hand Surgery and the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgery. I expect to be a full member of each in the future.
Outside of my professional activities, I enjoy being with my husband and our daughter. I also enjoy fitness training, travel, and good food.
