After 4 years in Albuquerque (an extra year spent as Chief Resident), he moved to Cleveland where he completed his sports medicine fellowship at University Hospitals/Rainbow Babies and Children's. There, he treated patients and athletes of all ages while working with local high schools, Kent State University, and the Cleveland Browns.
Dr. Reynolds moved back to Iowa in 2019. That fall, he started working for MercyOne, where he ran the sports medicine practice while also being the medical director of the pediatric urgent care at MercyOne Clive.
He specializes in musculoskeletal complaints, diagnostic ultrasound, and concussion management with associated return-to-play decisions. He has expertise in diagnosing and managing many common musculoskeletal injuries for patients of all ages such as acute muscle or ligament injury, non-surgical fractures, osteoarthritis —including ultrasound guided injections of any joint, stress fractures, exercise associated syncope and dyspnea, and pediatric overuse injuries.

He really dug into records and images, as well as listening to his patient! I would highly recommend
Very informative and worth your time to consult with
Procedures did not go as plan my teenager was experiencing quite a high level of discomfort. Agrees w/provider not best to move forward. Was very disappointed had to ask 2 medical staff and him to call something in for the excruciating pain she was stil having. In a few hours she will be fine is totally unacceptable and heartless.When asked what could she be given for the pain I was told not going to write don't recall the name but nothing stronger.Embarassing for him and capital Ortho like we were requesting illegal drugs? He ultimately conceded to write scp for anti inflammatory. We will never see this person and will recommend no one else does either
I have great visits here - good bedside manner, doesn't talk down to me about anything, answers questions readily.
Dr. Reynolds was knowledgeable and related well with his patient.
