My Notes

Conscientious and honest. Since 1996, a specialist in problems of the entire upper extremity- shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand. An accurate diagnosis comes first. Then conservative treatment is given primary consideration. If surgery is required, only the most advanced and proven techniques are used. In all cases, the goal is to maximize the benefits and minimize the risk of treatment.
