About

A surgeon who teaches.

Board-certified, fellowship-trained in orthopedic sports medicine, and convinced that the biggest gap in musculoskeletal care is not surgical skill. It's how we explain things.

Everything on this site, from the continuing education courses to the patient guides to the books, comes out of the same belief: people do better when they actually understand what's happening.
