I was always good at fixing things. I spent three years in construction - building houses, but decided I wanted to find something more stimulating. I hoped to find that challenge in medical school and put my building skills to good use by going into Orthopedic Surgery. I'm flattered when patients tell me that I'm more personal than other doctors. I want my patients to know that each one is important to me. I try to cater to each patient's individual needs. The best part of my job is seeing how happy patients are when they feel better.
