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
Great doctor!
Great bedside manor, great advice, he listened to my questions.
Awesome Dr he showed what to do with my shoulder so I can get more movement in. Me
Excellent consultation with Dr Baumgarten. I felt so comfortable and at ease knowing that he was more testing to see if I had more nerve damage before planning surgery.
I guess I just wish I would have asked him a few questions about the pain I have.
Best ever!
I felt understood, listened to and comfortable. Dr.Baumgarten asked great follow-up questions. I didn’t feel rushed.. Thank you, you put me at ease. Really in all fairness the whole team from the front desk, x-ray, nursing, to his assistant , to the PT, last but not least the valet parking attendant, I was treated kindly and efficiently! Great team of individuals!
Dr. Baumgarten and the staff has been nothing but courteous, Very knowledgeable and honest.
Awesome
Didn’t have much to say to me. Was in my room less than 5 minutes. Maybe that’s the norm for a first time visit but??
