An avid athlete herself, Dr. Dhar understands the demands professional and amateur athletes place upon their bodies and works to help them recover from injury in a safe and efficient manner.

She treats patients of all ages and abilities, from professional athletes to eager novices. Dr. Dhar focuses on each patient as an individual, formulating a comprehensive treatment plan utilizing conservative modalities such as physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medications and injections and, when indicated, surgical intervention.
