Takes all the steps needed to find out exactly what the problem is because he also wants to know. May sound simple but it took years to find someone who actually believed me. Told the er my neck feels broken and they said I had anxiety. 6 times. Seriously?

Very knowledgeable and friendly. Glad I found him again.
From Dr. Alvine My father had a great influence on me. He was an orthopedic surgeon as well, and I had the opportunity to practice with him over ten years of the past 22 years of my practice. Over the years, I observed how he treated each and every patient as an opportunity to help them, which I try to do today.

He received his Medical Degree from the University of Iowa in 1991 and went on to complete his Residency in Orthopedic Surgery at the University of Kansas in 1996. Dr. Alvine completed Spine Surgery Fellowship at Orthopedic Physician Associates in Seattle, WA in 1997 and then returned to Sioux Falls to begin his practice in July 1997. He practices general orthopedics with a special interest in foot and ankle surgery and spine surgery.
Dr. Alvine specializes in minimally invasive and complex spine surgery. He also developed a passion for foot and ankle surgery after he practiced with his father for over ten years. Before his retirement, his father specialized in the treatment of complex foot and ankle disorders, with a special interest in total ankle replacements. Today, Dr. Alvine has a very unique and rewarding practice treating both complex spine conditions as well as foot and ankle problems.
