I have been in practice for 22 years. I have worked with and trained residents throughout my career and continue to work with/teach residents at Corewell Health Royal Oak, where I am on staff. I am also on staff and perform surgery at Unasource Surgery Center in Troy, MI.

I have had the privilege of being asked to lecture at conferences and educational programs throughout the US on many topics in foot and ankle surgery through the years. I have held leadership positions on Committees and Boards for organizations and surgery centers throughout my professional career.

I have had the opportunity to treat athletes at all levels of competition, including NCAA Division I athletes. I have participated and continue to enjoy participating in sports. I was Team Podiatrist and Foot and Ankle Consultant for Oakland University Athletic Teams from 2013-2016 and Rochester College Athletic Teams from 2016-2018. I still serve both team by request now.

I completed my undergraduate studies at Michigan State University then graduated from Dr. Wm Scholl College of Podiatric Medicine, Chicago, IL in 1995. I completed my foot and ankle surgical training at Edgewater Medical Center in Chicago, serving as Chief Resident in my final year.

My clinical interests include:

• Minimally invasive surgical procedures of the foot and ankle
• Sports-related fracture/injury repair
• Joint replacement options in foot surgery
• Revision surgery, surgery to correct previous surgery, of the foot and ankle
• Reconstructive surgery of the foot and ankle
• Diabetic related foot conditions
