AREA OF RESEARCH

My area of research is orthopaedic surgery with a focus on trauma and upper extremity. Through research, I seek to optimize hip fracture patient care by assessing barriers associated with bridging acute care with long-term care and rehabilitation, exploring the use of indwelling versus intermittent catheters, and reconciling current clinical guidelines around hip fracture care with actual practice.
