"The most exciting part of my job is being an integral part of the design process from start to finish.  I am very fortunate to have seen so many patients achieve things they never thought possible because of something I designed.  The family atmosphere that patients experience when they walk through our door is instrumental to our patient's success.  Many of them have very unique obstacles to overcome and I believe our innovation and collaboration are the only ways to conquer these obstacles."

Eric continually learns about new technologies so that he can provide these beneficial advancements to his clients.   "If you are not continuously learning, you are not  giving your patient's  the best chance to succeed."

Eric is happily married for more than twenty years and has three beautiful daughters.  He enjoys traveling, history, playing tennis and spending time with his family.
