Dr. Owens has an amazing bedside manner. She addressed a previous concern we had with a staff member with great care and compassion. Her thoroughness during my husband’s 6-week post op visit.clearly defines why she is the best in her field. We will definitely refer her to family and friends.

Dr. Owens took the time needed to get my entire history and discuss all the options that might be available to me, including non-surgical options. Very thankful for her approach and expertise.

As a science lover who enjoys connecting with people, a career in medicine made sense to Dr. Owens. She chose orthopedics for its unique opportunities to treat disease versus manage it. Her joint replacement specialized practice enables her to build relationships with people who have lived highly active lives and have interesting stories. For Dr. Owens, helping them return to active lifestyles is fulfilling.
Dr. Owens's pursuit of excellence began at an early age. When a college professor told her she couldn’t study sports medicine, compete as a full-time student athlete and do research, she made it her mission to prove the professor wrong. Not only did Owens graduate from Pepperdine University summa cum laude, but she was also named an NCAA All-Academic Honoree (all four years), Women’s Swim Team Scholar-Athlete of the Year (twice), Female Scholar-Athlete of the Year, Natural Science Division Outstanding Graduate, and was a class valedictorian finalist.
As a Northern Nevada native, Dr. Owens enjoys hiking, skiing, and swimming when she’s not caring for patients.
