He started his medical training at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and then traveled to Houston, Texas to complete his orthopedic surgery residency at Baylor College of Medicine. He returned to Wisconsin to complete his hand surgery fellowship at the Medical College of Wisconsin while caring for patients with hand to shoulder problems. Dr. Zellner has also traveled extensively throughout his training. He was an AO traveling fellow in Spain and completed medical mission work in India, Guatemala, Ecuador, and Colombia.

Dr. Zellner is excited to provide orthopedic hand care in his home state, and he looks forward to opportunities to continue his medical mission work. He and his wife, who is a local family medicine physician, have two children. They enjoy spending time outdoors together, particularly hiking, biking, and cross country skiing.
There is nothing more gratifying than getting patients back to their activities; whether that is recreational sports, an occupation, hobbies, or activities of daily living. Our task is to counsel patients thoroughly on both the surgical and non-surgical options, allowing us to make a joint and informed decision on their care in order to get them back to their desired activity.

Appreciated his honesty.
Great doctor!
Very nice doctor
He is excellent …
Knew what the issues were with my wrists and gave me options to relieve my pain.
When I started having problems with my biceps and rotator cuffs I asked my physical therapist for the name of a doctor I could consult. He immediately said Dr. Zellner at OSMS. Dr. Zellner repaired my left rotator cuff and bicep, and I’ve been very happy with the results. He and his staff have been very personable and informative during my appointments before and after surgery. I know that when I need my other rotator cuff repaired I’ll be making an appointment with Dr Zellner. Thank you, Dr. Zellner.
Very thorough, listens well
He is wonderful. Very informative and great
Was detailed explaining my diagnosis and treatment options in a way that I was able to understand. He was patient and easy to talk to.
I was having numbness in all my fingers waking me up at night and zingers shooting down my arm throughout the day. Leading up to surgery the pain in my arm was intense and later in the evening after surgery I told my wife the intense pain was gone only surgical pain. Dr Zellner didn’t beat around the bush and on my first visit he said my two options were to live with it or have surgery, there was nothing that was going to make it better without surgery. I had previously tried oral steroids and several PT visits before being referred to Dr Zellner. Thank you Dr Zellner you are very good at what you do.
