Summary
My career has included a wide variety of clinical environments, from working weekends as an emergency room doctor in Big Bear California to treating battlefield casualties in Kuwait during the Gulf War and for many years working in a busy orthopedic practice specializing in sports medicine and adult reconstruction. This both broad and specialized experience has given me the strong desire to continue to look for better ways to treat disease and injury.
