I am an orthopedic surgeon with specialized training in the care of the hand and upper extremity. I received my BA in Human Biology from Stanford University and completed medical school at the University of California, San Francisco in 2001. While in my Orthopedic Surgery residency at the University of California, Los Angeles, I discovered my love of the hand – its value in our work and play, in how we express ourselves, and its intricate anatomy. This love led me to a fellowship in hand surgery at the Hand Center of San Antonio, TX, under the guidance of Dr. David P. Green. I joined Kaiser Permanente after finishing my training in 2007. I am proud to be a Team Physician for the San Jose Sharks®.
