Professional Statement

Education is my passion, and I strive to promote better understanding of musculoskeletal problems among my patients, their families, and among the residents and fellows who rotate through my clinic.

My style of practice revolves primarily around ensuring that my patients and families understand the injury and/or pain so that we can all work together to create the best plan of action for the patient so that they may achieve their goals. I believe that my patients and their families better understand the source of pain when they see the injury on an X-ray or a 3D model, which helps them recover faster and stay healthy in the future.

Beyond my clinical practice, I am a lucky husband and in 2023 was blessed to welcome a baby girl to my family. When not in clinic, I prefer to be walking with my family and our dog, playing some kind of sport to get outside with friends and family, or watching some LSU baseball and football while cheering loudly.

Fun fact: My wife and I contributed to seismic activity in Baton Rouge when we attended a Garth Brooks concert in Tiger Stadium in what is known as "The Garthquake."
