Clinical Practice Closing

 

 

 

​

 

 

After 46 years I will be closing my medical practice effective September 30, 2022. I will continue to remain active as a consultant and student mentor.

 

Our practice has been dedicated to providing quality foot and ankle care to all ages of patients with experienced diagnosis, selected intervention and informed treatment options. I am appreciative of my fellow colleagues, staff and physician extenders for their support in providing expert care to my patients and wish them as well as my patients all the best.
