My practice for the last 25 years in Connecticut has been delivering orthopaedic care with emphasis on hand surgery and joint replacement. I had the opportunity to study with many great hand surgeons, sports medicine surgeons and joint replacement surgeons during my training. This exposure allowed me to garner unique knowledge and skills from each of them and then apply them to my practice of orthopaedics. Thus my fellowship training in hand surgery and joint reconstruction surgery have complimented each other throughout my career. I have been able to offer state of the art Joint Replacement Surgery and Hand Surgery to my patients. My work with the professional, college and high school athletes has anchored me to my community and allowed me to help high achieving athletes recover from sports injuries. My work in Central America doing hand surgery over the last 12 years has allowed me to give back globally and expand the reach of benefits of my training. I have been lucky to work with an exceptional group of surgeons at Orthopaedic Specialty Group giving exceptional care to the people of Connecticut and beyond. I pride myself in being a listener to my patients. I am humbled and honored by the trust and respect I have received from them in return.
