I love my patients and love what I can do for them. I have a full armamentarium, what I call my “bag of tricks” (also know as gadgets and gizmos, many of which I make myself) that provide comfort and relief of pain caused by many common conditions of the foot and ankle. Some conditions may require surgical intervention in which my skills are exceptional but are reserved for those cases where conservative treatment is impractical or has failed.
