How are you doing with your New Years Resolutions?

Stopped by to see Dr. Denning at his veterinary hospital with Rabies Vaccines for him and his staff. Ensuring our veteranary colleagues are protected is part of collaborative practice, not to mention my job as his older brother.

Getting vaccinated for rabies is important for those at risk of coming in contact with rabid animals. Vaccinating ahead of time prevents the need for costly emergent hospital visits. Get protected! If you are bitten, scratched, or come in contact with an animal that has rabies or possibly does, go to the nearest Emerency Room immediately as untreated rabies is fatal.

Visit the CDC website to see if you’re at risk and need protection: https://www.cdc.gov/rabies/hcp/prevention-recommendations/pre-exposure-prophylaxis.html

Bio

I completed by undergraduate and graduate training at Stockton University graduating with honors and program distinction. I am a board certified Family Nurse Practitioner, specializing in orthopedic medicine. I am also a Registered Nurse First Assist assisting in surgery. I began my career in orthopedics in 2014. I have experience treating acute and chronic orthopedic problems including sports injuries in both adults and children. I also treat osteoporosis with a tailored lifestyle and medication regimen meeting the individual’s treatment and lifestyle goals.

Outside of clinical practice I enjoy spending time with my loving wife and two daughters. We live an active lifestyle enjoying boating, the beach, and outdoors. I also serve my community in the capacity of Board of Education President for Ocean Township. Additionally, I am an adjust professor of nursing at Stockton University.

I look forward to helping you manage your orthopedic problems and helping your achieve your optimum health. Give me a call to get you on the path to wellness.
