As a member of the Orthopaedics team, my goal is to help patients return to their baseline activities after an injury, or to improve their daily function if they are dealing with more chronic orthopaedic conditions. When my patients are nonverbal or are children, I rely on family members for their input and support. Often, family members know the patient’s cues best and can help decipher why a patient may be in pain. I am always happy to take the time to answer my patients’ questions and to discuss their diagnoses in detail.
