About Me
I live in Brooklyn with my wife, son, and daughter. I enjoy traveling, music, and I never turn down a pickup basketball game.
I am a board certified and fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeon specializing in surgery of the hand and upper extremity. I love what I do, and am passionate about helping my patients improve their quality of life and returning them to their activities.
