Sports medicine & orthopaedic care for James Island

James Island and Folly patients are outdoors most of the year — surfing, paddling, running the county park trails — and they want to keep moving with the least invasive plan that works.

How care usually starts

Conservative care comes first for most problems — a clear diagnosis, activity changes and physician-directed therapy. Orthobiologics such as PRP or BMAC are considered only after reasonable conservative treatment, and surgery is never automatic, even after an injury.

Regenerative medicine for James Island patients

As a regenerative medicine specialist and fellowship-trained shoulder and knee surgeon, I offer platelet-rich plasma (PRP), bone marrow concentrate and microfat — all made from your own cells — alongside shockwave therapy, arthroscopy, ACL and meniscus surgery, rotator cuff repair and shoulder replacement. Patients from James Island can get every option, surgical and non-surgical, weighed in one visit.
