Get Back In The Game
No Matter What Game
Working together with orthopedists, physical therapists, and trainers, I contribute my specialized knowledge as an active component of an integrated healthcare team. When you watch a professional game, there are many teams present: the team playing, the team of coaches, and the healthcare team, each with their own specialty.
I have had the pleasure of treating numerous professional and amateur athletes throughout my career. This includes national and world champion handball players, professional baseball, football, and golf players, semi-professional soccer players, gymnasts, national and Junior Olympic karate champions, as well as our local future stars. My love for sports, combined with the recent increase in sports-related injuries I have observed in my office, compelled me to learn advanced training to support our community and the athletic programs in our area.
