Accepting new patients

No ratings to display.

Why aren't there any ratings?

There is no publicly available rating for this care provider for one of three reasons:

  1. They do not see patients.
  2. They see patients but have not yet received the minimum number of patient experience reviews. To be eligible for display, we require a minimum of 30 surveys. This ensures that the rating is statistically reliable and an accurate reflection of patient experience.
  3. They see patients but do not see enough patients to collect a statistically-reliable patient experience rating.

About me

I am a plastic and reconstructive surgeon with fellowship training in reconstructive microsurgery. This means I can provide patients with microsurgical techniques to restore form and function following injury, cancer treatment or other conditions requiring reconstruction

My clinical focus includes:

  • Limb salvage
  • Breast reconstruction
  • Microsurgical tissue transfer (free flap reconstruction)
  • Complex soft tissue and wound reconstruction
  • General reconstructive surgery

I strive to provide compassionate, individualized care, focusing on restoring function, improving quality of life and helping patients return to the activities they enjoy. With specialized training in reconstructive microsurgery, I combine advanced surgical techniques with a thoughtful, patient-centered approach to address complex reconstructive needs. I value the opportunity to make a meaningful difference in patients' lives through reconstructive surgery.

Before medicine, I served in the U.S. Navy from 2002 to 2007 as an aircraft electrician on the F-14, F-18 and P-3.

A committed member of the Oregon community, I enjoy the Pacific Northwest’s natural beauty. Outside the clinic, I can be found with my dogs, enjoying hiking, surfing and backcountry snowboarding.

Insurance

Before scheduling an appointment

  1. Check your network. If you have health insurance,  call your company to find out if the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is part of your network.
  2. Ask what you will pay. Your insurance company can tell you what your costs are likely to be.

If you schedule an appointment and your health insurance does not include OHSU Health, you may have to pay more than if you go to a provider in your insurance network.
