What inspired you to want to become a doctor?
When I was younger, I was introduced to the world of anatomy and physiology through hunting and fishing and through science classes. Then I discovered that medicine would allow me to combine and apply these concepts on a daily basis with the ultimate goal of helping patients live a fulfilling life.
Hearing patients talk about improved mobility, quality of life and continued independence during post-operative appointments is what I find most rewarding about orthopaedic surgery.
