Experience

Having been an All-American high school athlete and a collegiate baseball player, I deeply understand the significance of sports and physical activity in people's lives. This realization led me to pursue a career in orthopaedics and sports medicine, driven by the passion to help patients return to the activities they cherish. At present, I serve as an associate professor at the University of Florida's Department of Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine and work as a team physician for the UF Athletic Association. My medical journey began with a degree from the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in 2003. Post that, I undertook a residency in orthopaedic surgery at The Johns Hopkins Hospital. After my residency, I pursued further specialization through a sports medicine and arthroscopy fellowship at the University of Miami Sports Medicine Institute (previously known as Uribe, Hechtman, Zvijac Sports Medicine Institute), followed by a fellowship focusing on shoulder and elbow reconstruction at the University of Florida.
