Appointment Information
Red Wing, MN
Hospital and Clinic
701 Hewitt Blvd., Red Wing, MN 55066Provider's Bio
My practice philosophy is to treat every patient on an individualized basis and to develop a personalized treatment plan that is in the best interest for each patient. I will never push surgery and will exhaust non-surgical treatment options prior to recommending surgery for most conditions. I also enjoy spending time educating patients about their condition and taking the time to make sure they have all their questions answered.
I am originally from Cold Spring, Minnesota. I am happy to be in Minnesota and taking care of a community similar to the one I grew up in. I enjoy spending time with my wife and young daughter. I also love the outdoors and enjoy hiking, running, boating, fishing, basketball, golf, downhill skiing and snowboarding.
