He concurrently graduated from his second Post-Master’s from the University of Saint Joseph, West Hartford, CT. He is board certified FNP through the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners (AANP).
Jason’s journey to medicine began during his U.S. Marine Corps career. During his time as an infantry Marine he became a Wounded Warrior medically retired from the USMC due to significant cardiac disease and pulmonary debilitation. During his medical journey he became frustrated with poor understanding and ambivalent medical systems that failed to demonstrate understanding and compassion for their patients. This prompted him to study and practice medicine with an emphasis on serving others and making them feel cared for. He was mentored by his Naval Cardiologist, Dr. Sumption, to join the field of medicine and encouraged him to begin his career as a nurse to gain firsthand service and experience in caring for patients.
Jason began his practice practicing general orthopedic surgery, trauma surgery, but specialized in Hand and Upper Extremity. He also worked in Family Medicine as a traditional PCP.
Jason’s passion is teaching, empowering, and guiding his patients to better health and wellness and helping them to be the stewards of their health.
