Our Team · Advanced Practice Providers

The clinicians you'll see most.

Between your surgeon's OR days, our physician assistants and nurse practitioner keep your care moving — same-day injury visits, injections, post-op checks, and honest answers. They work alongside the surgeons in clinic and the operating room, on the same chart, one hallway apart.

Physician assistants & nurse practitioner

What an orthopedic PA actually does for you

Physician assistants and nurse practitioners are licensed clinicians who diagnose, treat, and manage orthopedic care in collaboration with your surgeon. In practice, that means faster appointments when you're hurting, thorough post-op follow-ups, injections and casting without waiting for an OR day to end — and a second set of expert eyes that knows your case as well as your surgeon does, because they work from the same chart in the same hallway.
