My approach to treating patients
My practice specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of orthopaedic conditions with a sub-specialty in disorders of the hand and upper extremity. I am Board Certified in Orthopaedic Surgery and a Fellow of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons and the American Association of Orthopaedic Surgery. In addition, the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery has recognized me as an expert in Hand and Upper Extremity by awarding me a Certificate of Added Qualifications (CAQ) in this field. I am a member of the American Society for Surgery of the Hand.
I graduated from the NYU-Hospital for Joint Diseases Orthopaedic Surgery Residency Program where I was awarded the Freunthal Award for clinical research and completed a Hand and Upper Extremity fellowship at Stanford University. I am the Director of Hand Surgery at the Community Hospital at Dobbs Ferry. This training and experience allows me to bring you the most up-to-date treatment options including arthroscopy and other minimally invasive techniques(including hand, wrist, carpal tunnel, elbow and shoulder). Patients with arthritis, fractures, sprains, dislocations, tendon injuries, nerve injuries, sports injuries, and many other conditions are treated expertly.
I have authored numerous book chapters and journal articles on many topics including tendon injury, wrist fractures, wrist instability, rheumatoid arthritis, total joint replacement in the upper extremity, perioperative pain management and bone graft substitutes. I serve as a contributing editor to the prestigious annual journal "Yearbook in Hand and Upper Limb Surgery".
As a patient in my practice you will receive exceptional care and attention. I believe in listening to my patients and then educating them on their condition. This allows us to make the best treatment decisions together.
Outside of my practice I am involved in a variety of activities including coaching youth sports teams and am an avid fundraiser for the Lympatic Research Foundation. I am an active participant in many sports including Triathlon, distance running, biking, swimming, skiing, snowboarding, basketball and weight training and am a former collegiate soccer and rugby player. I work with many recreational, elite and professional atheletes and have provided services to the New York Mets, and the Alvin Ailey Dance Company.
