The Patient Rating score is an average of all responses to physician related questions on our nationally-recognized Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best score. Comments also are gathered from this Patient Satisfaction Survey. Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy. The comments are submitted by patients and reflect their views and opinions. The comments are not endorsed by and don’t necessarily reflect the views of Kaiser Permanente.
I am originally from Eastern Long Island, New York, where I grew up surrounded by the water, and have been involved in water sports and outdoor activities since. I decided on a career in orthopedic surgery and sports medicine in high school when I realized that combining my affinity for the sciences and passion for fitness would achieve a perfect fit for me. After completion of my training, I spent seven years in the Navy where I enjoyed caring for active duty members, retirees, and their families. Among many exciting endeavors during this time, I had the opportunity to consult at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland and the Officer Candidate School in Quantico, Virginia. Upon completion of my active duty obligation, I spent six years in private practice. I relocated to Portland, Oregon in 2011 at which time I began working for Kaiser Permanente.
About my practice
I currently see patients of all ages from elite athletes and weekend warriors, to those who simply enjoy remaining active walking with the family or gardening. I will listen to your individual story and we will formulate a plan to try and achieve the goals that we set forth. Many conditions are the result of overuse or improper biomechanics, and can therefore be remedied by non-surgical means. When surgery is required, we will employ the latest techniques and postoperative rehabilitation to help optimize recovery.
How I thrive
I Thrive on surrounding myself with positive energy. I enjoy conversation and laughter with family and friends, especially while sharing a good meal. I am most at peace around the water and enjoy swimming, scuba diving, kayaking, and, since relocating to Portland, have discovered a new passion of dragon boating.
