Orthopedist
2200 Northern Blvd. 115 East Hills NY, 11548About
My practice includes specialized surgical and non-surgical care of patients with hip and knee ailments. This includes conservative treatment for hip and knee osteoarthritis, hip and knee injections for pain relief, hip and knee scopes, as well as hip and knee replacements. I not only enjoy primary joint replacements, but have become one of the regional referral sources for prosthetic infection treatment, revision surgery for prosthetic loosening, failure, instability, and/or fracture, as well as, difficult replacements due to congenital bony deformities. I have also become more and more involved in the evaluation and treatment of femoroacetabular impingement with hip arthroscopy. I am trained in both traditional and mini-invasive approaches to joint replacement, uniarthroplasties, gender specific technologies, as well as, MRI-based custom knee replacement.
