Areas treated: Foot & Ankle, Hand & Wrist, Hip, Knee, Shoulder
No matter what my patients require to stop hurting, I’m here to either provide it for them myself or show them where to find a solution. Our capabilities are vast at Chicago Arthritis — we perform procedures ranging from injections to minimally invasive surgeries. We also focus on managing your condition rather than masking it. Many of my patients have been suffering for years, so finally giving them relief and allowing them to enjoy their favorite activities gives me great satisfaction.
