I am a fellowship-trained surgeon who treats all foot and ankle pathology with special interests in forefoot and rearfoot reconstruction, revision surgery, trauma (foot and ankle fractures), sports medicine, arthroscopy, bunion correction, and minimally invasive surgical techniques. I am fueled by a deep passion to help my patients return to their activity level, regain their mobility and quality of life. 

With extensive training and experience in these specialized areas, I bring a comprehensive understanding of the complexities and nuances of foot and ankle conditions. Through evidence-based practices, I strive to achieve optimal outcomes for each patient whether it involves conservative treatments or surgical interventions. 

Continuing education is vital to me, as I am committed to staying at the forefront of my field. I actively seek the latest research, techniques, and technologies to provide my patients with the most advanced and effective treatments. My dedication to ongoing learning ensures that my patients receive the highest standard of care. 

Guided by compassion, expertise, and a patient-centered approach, I am committed to the well-being and recovery of my patients within this dynamic multi-specialty group. The close collaboration within this group enables streamlined communication and coordination of care amongst the various specialties, primary care, and physical therapy; ultimately, providing integrative and patient-centered care. I consider it an honor to be entrusted with caring for my patients and treating the San Francisco Bay Area community at the Palo Alto Medical Foundation.

My philosophy of care centers on compassion, expertise and patient-centeredness. I prioritize open communication, personalized treatment plans, and staying up-to-date with advancements in foot and ankle surgery. By establishing a strong patient-physician relationship built on trust, I aim to create a safe and supportive environment where patients feel comfortable sharing their experiences and their goals. My goal is to regain function and mobility, alleviate pain, and enhance overall well-being for each patient from providing comprehensive care from diagnosis through recovery, whether through non-surgical or surgical treatment.
