He is a founding member of the Mayo Clinic Young Hip Clinic. He also has expertise in knee surgery, with a particular focus on patellofemoral instability. He serves as Research Chair for the Division of Sports Medicine, with a mission to provide patients with modern solutions to modern challenges, while ensuring that treatments are well-supported through evidence-based medicine and tailored, individualized treatment plans.
