Is An OrthoWell Membership For Me?
Is An OrthoWell Membership For Me?
IS AN ORTHOWELL MEMBERSHIP FOR ME?
Many patients believe that, as a surgeon, all I aim to do is to operate. Whereas that may be true for some orthopedic surgeons, I believe my true job is to keep you out of the
operating room and not take you to it. I believe my job is to keep you doing the
activities you enjoy as opposed to telling you not to live your life.
In medical school, when I was deciding what type of physician I wanted to be become, I asked my father for some advice. He simply told me, “Son, the cardiothoracic surgeons saved my life, but it was the Orthopedic surgeons that have allowed me to live it.” That conversation still resonates to this day. My job, my passion, is to see all my patients continue to live the life they want to live. I want to be a facilitator of your goals whatever they may be.

We are here to not only help you with your joint and muscle pains, but also help you in your recovery, your nutrition, and your overall wellness growth.
