He spent the next five years completing his surgical internship and orthopaedic surgery residency at The University of Tennessee College of Medicine Chattanooga, graduating in 2012. In 2013, he completed a one-year foot and ankle surgical fellowship under the direction of renowned surgeon Dr. Michael Coughlin at the Saint Alphonsus Foot and Ankle Clinic in Boise, Idaho. His experience during this fellowship year also included participation in surgery with Dr. Coughlin's partners, Chris Hirose MD and Travis Kemp MD. In the summer of 2013, after the completion of his fellowship, he spent time in Los Angeles, California with Richard Ferkel, M.D. to gain additional insight into foot and ankle sports injuries and small joint arthroscopy.

He takes emergency calls and is experienced in the treatment of orthopaedic trauma. He has published multiple peer reviewed articles and chapters in the orthopaedic literature and has participated as teaching faculty at several courses.
He is very excited to be in Chattanooga, partnering with the faculty of the University of Tennessee College of Medicine. He strives to provide advanced and compassionate care to his patients, while contributing to the educational training of the next generation of orthopaedic surgeons.
