I am a board-certified orthopedic surgeon with over 20 years of experience diagnosing and treating conditions related to muscles, bones, and joints. My expertise spans sports injuries, degenerative diseases, tumors, infections, and congenital disorders, with a special focus on joint repair and replacement surgeries. I completed my medical degree at Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University, followed by advanced training through residency and fellowship programs at NYU Langone Orthopedic Hospital and the Hospital for Joint Diseases.
Currently, I practice in Mount Vernon, Illinois, and am affiliated with multiple hospitals, including SSM Health St. Mary’s Hospital Centralia and Fairfield Memorial Hospital. My commitment to patient care is reflected in the trust and recommendations of those I treat. I accept a variety of insurance plans, including Medicare, Humana, Blue Cross, and United Healthcare, ensuring accessibility to quality orthopedic care. With certifications from the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery in both Orthopaedic Surgery and Surgery of the Hand, I remain dedicated to advancing my field and providing the highest level of care.
