  • Optional Personal Statement: As an Orthopaedic Surgeon my primary focus of research is joint preservation. My primary clinical interests are Orthopaedic Trauma and Hip Reconstruction. In Orthopaedic Trauma my research interests are 1) Basic science investigations of articular fractures with two current animal models in use. 2) Clinical research includes evaluation of techniques to reduce and stabilize articular fractures, as well as management of open fractures. In the area of Hip Reconstruction my areas of research are 1) Hip Arthroscopy and treatment of hip disorders, and treatment of labral tears in the treatment of hip pain. 2) Periacetabular osteotomy for the treatment of hip dysplasia.
