Our goal is to not just get our patients feeling better, but to help each individual achieve the highest possible level of post-treatment function so they can get back to playing hard.

ABOUT OUR PRACTICE

We operate with small-town care and big city expertise.
At Traverse City Orthopedics, we take pride in our expertise and customer care. Our patients see the physician that treated them. We are involved and take pride in our community, and that is reflected in the way we treat our patients. From visiting with a patient and his family at Peegeo’s about the patients successful recovery and his upcoming football season, to providing physician accessibility in our office, we truly care for our patients.

From the weekend warrior, to the serious athlete, we provide expert care to each patient individually, to ensure they can continue to do what they love comfortably and safely.
