Dr. Matthew Gnirke is a board-certified, fellowship-trained physiatrist who focuses on interventional sports, spine, and regenerative medicine. His practice centers on the proper diagnosis, prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal injuries and disorders.
He completed undergraduate studies at Virginia Tech, where he graduated summa cum laude in biological sciences. He returned to his home state of New York for medical school at Upstate Medical University. During medical school, he was a member of the Alpha Omega Alpha honor society.
His love for Colorado began during residency training in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at the University of Colorado, where he was chief resident. He went on to complete advanced fellowship training in interventional sports, spine, and regenerative medicine and is board-certified by the American Board of PM&R.
Dr. Gnirke utilizes precise musculoskeletal ultrasound and fluoroscopy to localize and treat joint, tendon, ligament, and nerve disorders. He is fellowship trained in regenerative medicine, including platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and bone marrow-derived stem cells to treat disorders of the musculoskeletal system.
Specifically, Dr. Gnirke provides evidenced-based orthobiologic treatments for degenerative disc disease, arthritis, meniscus tears, and several tendon-related disorders such as rotator cuff injuries, tennis elbow, and greater trochanteric pain syndrome.
In addition to biologic treatments, Dr. Gnirke also performs conventional sports and spine procedures, including electromyography, fluoroscopy-guided epidural steroid injections, facet and SI joint injections and ablations, and ultrasound-guided joint, tendon, and nerve injections.
In his free time, Dr. Gnirke enjoys all that Colorado has to offer. An avid rockhound, hiker, cyclist, and skier, Dr. Gnirke is a lifelong grappler, having grown up wrestling, and he continues to train and compete in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. As an athlete himself, Dr. Matthew Gnirke personally understands how important a proper diagnosis and precise treatment is to maximize performance in sport and life.
Additionally, Dr. Gnirke is certified in Registered in Musculoskeletal® (RMSK®) sonography. RMSK® sonography certification raises the standard of musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging worldwide and promotes best practices for enhanced patient safety.

Dr. Gnirke is a very kind and compassionate doctor. He takes his time and answers my questions completely. I have had very good results with his PRP injections.
Dr. Gnirke and staff have a great “bed side manner”. Our conversations are friendly and down to earth. I’m looking forward to our next meeting.
Dr. Gnirke was very kind and thorough. He listened to the history of my injury and pain, showed and explained my MRI to me, tested my strength and reflexes, and gave me several treatment options, as well as encouragement to follow up with him if my symptoms worsen or fail to improve. I was very comfortable with him and felt hopeful when I left.
