About Dr. Baumgarten
Dr. Baumgarten is fellowship-trained in sports medicine and knee and shoulder surgery. He is the first and only physician in South Dakota to be elected to the prestigious American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Society. In addition, he was the first fellowship-trained hip arthroscopy specialist to care for patients with hip pain in South Dakota.
Dr. Baumgarten served as an Associate Physician with the New York Mets baseball team while completing his fellowship at the Hospital for Special Surgery. During residency, he trained with the team physicians of the St. Louis Rams, Blues, and Cardinals sports teams and is the current Head Team Physician for the Sioux Falls Stampede and the Sioux Falls Canaries.
Dr. Baumgarten is passionate about improving the quality of orthopaedic and musculoskeletal care. He feels that by performing both basic science and clinical research, he can potentially help millions of people improve the quality of their lives, in addition to the patients that he sees here at the Orthopedic Institute. Dr. Baumgarten has been presented with the Charles S. Neer Award in 2011 and 2013 for the best shoulder research performed that year, and the O’Donoghue Award in 2014 for his research on ACL injuries. He is quoted in an in-depth article by ESPN on Human Growth Hormone. A very interesting read for anyone, from athletes to farmers, who are trying to recover more quickly.
When Dr. Baumgarten isn’t caring for his patients or on the sideline helping athletes, he can be found participating in sports, playing and listening to music with his children, reading, and spending time with his family
Super great Dr.
Doctor Baumgarten was very personal and professional. He gave options for moving forward. Appreciate his approach to my situation.
Great surgeon, very personable and I would highly recommend him!! I am extremely happy with my shoulder replacement
Dr. Baumgarten knew what I was looking to take care of. Even though it wasn’t planned, he set me up with pain management and physical therapy yet that morning so I didn’t have to travel back.
I love Dr. Baumgarten. He is thorough, has a great rapport with his patients and makes me feel at ease. I don't feel rushed and he gives me time to ask questions. I highly recommend him!
They just don’t get much better than Dr.Keith…he is the best!!!
I appreciate that Dr. Baumgarten is friendly but to the point. Everything about my visit went like clockwork and I left feeling confident that my diagnosis and treatment plan were just right.
He is an excellent doctor. He listened and asked questions. I think he’s a very good Dr.
