Summary

  • I am a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PMR) Physician, specializing in the care and rehabilitation of patients with disabling and painful conditions of muscles, bones, and peripheral nerves. I have special expertise and passion for the care and rehabilitation of patients with amputation or limb difference. I work with my patients to identify the prosthetic limbs, orthotics, or other equipment that best help them succeed.

    As a rehab physician I also treat a broad variety of musculoskeletal conditions such as joint pain, arthritis, sports injuries, tendon and ligament injuries, and pain related to the peripheral nerves and spine. This includes interventional procedures under X-ray and ultrasound guidance for relieving pain and improving function, including regenerative therapies such as Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP).

    I am a proud son of Detroit, Michigan, and graduate of the University of California Santa Cruz in molecular, cellular, and developmental biology. I spent two years working in research and education in Detroit before I completed my medical training at the University of Miami with a combined degree of M.D. and Master of Public Health (MPH). I stayed at Miami for PM&R residency at Jackson Health and UMiami's state-of-the-art Lynn Rehabilitation Center. I moved to Richmond Virginia in 2023 to complete fellowship training in Amputee and Musculoskeletal Medicine at the Hunter Holmes Veteran's Affairs Hospital and Virginia Commonwealth University's department of PM&R.
