A graduate of Providence College with a degree in Biology, Christopher received his Masters in Physician Assistant Studies from Springfield College. Before becoming a Physician Assistant, Chris spent four years on active duty in the United States Army, earning the rank of Captain. Growing up, Chris was always involved in sports and athletic activities. “A career in orthopedics provides me with the opportunity to help other people continue to stay active and healthy, and enjoy the activities they love,” he explains. Chris believes in building a trusting relationship with his patients and keeping them informed so they have a good understanding of their condition and management plan. “The more informed patients are, the more comfortable and likely they are to play an active role in their treatment.” During his free time, Chris enjoys being with his wife and two daughters; as well as golfing and watching his two favorite home teams, the Patriots and Red Sox.
