I am a board certified, fellowship-trained hand and upper extremity orthopaedic surgeon. It was during my fellowship that I began to take a strong interest in helping patients with ailments of the hand and upper extremity. It was at that time that I began refining my expertise in surgical treatments for trigger finger and carpal tunnel release, rotator cuff repair and shoulder replacement surgery. In my practice, I specialize in endoscopic carpal tunnel release; hand, wrist, and upper extremity fractures; upper extremity arthritis including basal joint, wrist, elbow, and shoulder; arthroscopic shoulder surgery including rotator cuff repair; shoulder replacement surgery; as well as, peripheral nerve compression neuropathies and injuries. I regularly perform upper extremity trauma surgery for fractures as well as tendon and nerve injuries. I also specialize in wide awake surgical techniques, such that patients do not require sedation, including trigger finger release, Dupuytren’s contracture, mass excisions, and tendon repairs.

I see patients in Victor and Canandaigua because I am committed to keeping patient care local and maximizing the patient experience while minimizing their travel.
