Message from the Doctor:
I consider myself to be an expert in mobility. I believe that by maintaining an extremely active and mobile lifestyle gives me an enormous amount of insight on helping others stay on their feet. I have been a competitive distance runner since 9th grade. I have run the marathon (26.2 miles) in 2:36:44. I have run the Broad Street 10-mile run in 55minutes. I have competed in Mountain bike races, duathalons, and adventure races, and ultra marathons. I am an avid backcountry skier. I practice a very mobile lifestyle. I try to pass what I have learned from that lifestyle onto my patients. I have logged well over 30,000 miles of running. Throughout the years I have had a lot of personal experience with overuse injury. These experiences have given me a tremendous amount of insight in treating these disorders. It is my goal as a practitioner to give my patients the highest degree of mobility possible. Whether their goal is just being able to stand on two feet and walk without pain or completing an ultra-marathon I believe I can help people with all levels of foot and ankle disorders.
