About Me
care philosophy
I try to treat all hand surgery conditions non-surgically. If that fails, I use the most up to date minimally invasive techniques so my patients can recover quicker and return to work and activities.I try to treat my patients the same way I treat my family members. Compassionate, caring and competent.
biography
I am a world expert in minimally invasive treatments for Dupuytren contracture including needle aponeurotomy (NA / PNF) and collagenase (Xiaflex / Xiapex). I am active in research and a board member of the Dupuytren Research Group.Orthopedic Hand Surgery
