Biography

I’m an orthopedic surgeon specializing in spinal care, and I’m dedicated to helping patients with conditions that affect the neck, back and entire spine. 

I earned my medical degree from Queen’s University and completed my orthopedic surgery residency at the University of Toronto. I further trained in spine surgery through a fellowship at the University of Toronto’s Toronto Western Hospital, and I’m board-certified by the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery.
