Best Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome Doctors in Portland, TN

To be known as a provider of Premier orthopedic care, along with support and encouragement to help our patients resume a more active lifestyle and to Get Back Out There.

I believe it is necessary to spend time with my patients talking about their lifestyle and associating that with their complaints. This allows me to determine if lifestyle modifications are necessary to help with their orthopaedic problems. Often, with Modifications, Physical Therapy, Anti-inflammatory Medication and Exercise, we can avoid surgery. When surgery is necessary, using procedures like arthroscopic and minimally invasive techniques, my patients get back to work and life more quickly.
