I found at an early age that while I was always strong in math and science, I was really interested in the inner workings of the human body. My Mom and Dad told me they wanted me to be a doctor and lucky for them, so did I. During medical school I found myself drawn to the technical nature of spine surgery. I like the fact that most doctors don't want to take on the challenge associated with spine surgery and I live for it. I work hard to stay objective and try to be the voice of reason in what can often be a situation filled with emotion. I tend to be very professional, but you must know that I am always looking out for your best interest.
