As a chiropractic physician, I provide my patients with evidence-based, collaborative, and effective care. I accomplish this by developing a patient-physician relationship that involves understanding, empathy and a focus on doing what’s right for each patient and their problem. I see myself as the “quarterback” of their health care team. If I can’t help the patient, I connect them with the appropriate specialist, accessing the leading-edge care available at St. Luke’s University Health Network.
I am a chiropractic physician who provides care for a wide variety of musculoskeletal conditions and injuries. I treat the neck, upper and lower back, and upper and lower extremities. My focus is soft tissue conditions. I am passionate about sports medicine and have a functional aim in my treatments. I provide spinal manipulation, traction, flexion distraction, mobilization and numerous soft tissue treatments. I offer modalities such as ultrasound, muscle stim, heat and cryotherapy. I am a certified Graston technique provider and utilize stretching, exercise prescription and kineseotaping in my treatments. I am a Graston technique brand ambassador.
Serving the Lehigh Valley for more than 30 years, I have cared for patients in private practice, a multi-disciplinary orthopedic care practice and led and developed the area’s first chiropractic division in a hospital network. I have served as a chiropractic consultant and team physician for numerous local high schools and universities, caring for athletes from youth programs, high school, collegiate and professional levels.
I am a member of the Pennsylvania Chiropractic Association and the American Chiropractic Association. I am active in health care legislative efforts on the State and National level. I advise and lecture on hospital-based chiropractic care. I received my doctorate in chiropractic from the Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, IA, and my undergraduate degree from Penn State University.
Outside my practice, I enjoy spending time with my wife and keeping up with our three wonderful children. I am passionate about Italian culture and enjoy and appreciate cuisine and wines. I am a proud member of the Holy Cross Society in Easton, a Sicilian cultural organization.
