My care philosophy
I believe in providing every child and their family with individualized, compassionate care that meets their unique needs. I focus on hip dysplasia, other hip disorders, and orthopedic trauma, offering up to date, research driven treatments to help kids reclaim their active lives. By promoting open communication and education I ensure that parents feel informed and empowered throughout their child’s treatment journey. My goal is to help children recover and thrive so they can get back to what they do best—being kids.
