My practice is focused on sports medicine, knee and shoulder arthroscopy, joint replacement as well as general orthopaedics. I also enjoy fracture and trauma. Growing up in a small community in Southern Indiana, I always had an interest in the natural sciences and medicine.  After earning my medical degree at Indiana University School of Medicine, I completed my orthopaedic training in the Army. I served for 9 years as a surgeon, at Ft. Bliss and Ft. Campbell before deciding to return home to Indiana. My time in the Army, to include a combat tour in Iraq, provided excellent training returning soldiers, veterans and family members back to their active lifestyles following a wide range of injuries.

I tailor my care to the patient’s needs and goals to offer the best treatment plans to return patients back to their normal activities. Being your surgeon is an honor. I am committed to providing exceptional care with the team at Tri-State Orthopaedic Surgeons. From the clinic to the operating room, you can expect to be treated with respect and compassion.
