Dr. Jedediah W. Jones

Dr. Jedediah Jones, M.D. is pleased to be back in his hometown of Las Vegas, NV. While growing up here, he attended George E. Harris Elementary School, The Meadows School, and Chaparral High School. Dr. Jones received a Bachelor of Science degree in Zoology from Brigham Young University. He then attended Indiana University School of Medicine. While in medical school he served as a clinical anatomy student instructor. He also took a particular interest in clinical research in the Department of Surgery. This work has been published in the Annals of Surgery. Upon earning his M.D., he decided to pursue his interests in research and thus signed on as a research fellow in the Department of Orthopaedics at Indiana University. His area of focus was pediatric orthopaedics, including cerebral palsy. His work was again published, this time in the Iowa Medical Journal and the prestigious Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery.

After his research fellowship, he entered the orthopaedic surgery residency program at Indiana University where he received excellent training in all branches of the specialty including pediatric orthopaedics and trauma. While in residency, he became particularly interested in the intricacies and complexity of the hand and upper extremity. He traveled to India with Dr. Alexander Mih of the Indiana Hand Center, where he helped treat children and adults with complex congenital and traumatic malformations of the hand and arm. As a senior resident he presented his research on Tendon Transfers in Obstetric Brachial Plexus Palsy to the Indiana Orthopaedic Society.

Dr. Jones's interest in the hand and upper extremity led him to the Indiana Hand Center, an internationally renowned center for hand care, training and education. He received a year of intensive training in surgery of the elbow, forearm, wrist, and hand, including micro vascular surgery, trauma, pediatrics, and the surgical management of arthritis. During his fellowship, he conducted and presented additional clinical research on the treatment and evaluation of certain wrist injuries.

Dr. Jones has a passion for the treatment of disorders of the hand and upper extremity. He has particular interest in the elbow and pediatric hand disorders. Outside of work, Dr. Jones enjoys spending time with his family, reading, biking, skiing, hunting, fishing, and backpacking.
