Our Providers

Experience | Diversity | Teamwork | Access

You get all of this when you see one of the providers at OAW!

Experience: OAW providers have a combined orthopedic experience of over 100 years! They bring that experience to your diagnosis and treatment to get you the best outcomes possible.
Diversity: Within our team of providers, OAW has two fellowship trained hand surgeons, two fellowship trained trauma surgeons, and providers with extensive experience in sports injuries, trauma, total joint replacement and arthroscopy. We were the first in the area to offer total hip replacement by anterior approach and are one of the only clinics in the area to offer hip arthroscopy.
Teamwork: The OAW team of providers work collaboratively to make sure you benefit from the depth of knowledge on the team. We also coordinate coverage so you can always get answers…even if your provider is out of the office.
Access: With a full-time team of nurses to help answer questions, an after-hours call service for emergencies and our OAW Ortho Express Walk In, you can get the care you need, when you need it!
