As a podiatrist, I truly enjoy getting to know each of my patients and supporting this important aspect of their health. I am certified in general podiatry by the American Board of Multiple Specialties in Podiatry. I was born and raised in Manville, NJ and attended the Pennsylvania College of Podiatric Medicine (now Temple College of Podiatric Medicine). I completed a one-year surgical residency at Union Hospital in Union, NJ, which prepared me well for routine foot care and the minor procedures that I have performed over my career.
For more than 20 years, I have been privileged to care for many of the underserved populations in the Lehigh Valley. In my private practice, I have seen patients of all ages, from children to the elderly, including many intellectually and mentally challenged individuals. Joining St. Luke’s in 2024, I look forward to continue serving the community and upholding the mission of St. Luke’s University Health Network.
I also enjoy teaching the Network’s podiatry residents. I hope to promote a balanced approach, with a fondness for routine foot care amidst the many other more complicated procedures in which St Luke’s Podiatry excels.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife, a St. Luke’s School of Nursing graduate and registered nurse employed within the Network, and with my son, who has studied mathematics and physics at Penn State University. Together, my son and I have earned third- and fourth-degree black belts in karate! And I cannot forget the joy I experience in caring for my two saltwater fish tanks and koi pond, along with caring for my two dogs.
