A native Oregonian, Dr. Patrick Denard has been voted one of the top 20 shoulder surgeons in North America and is the most widely published shoulder specialist in Oregon. Dr. Denard has advanced arthroscopy training and is able to perform the vast majority of shoulder procedures in a minimally invasive fashion, including all types of rotator cuff repairs and instability repair. These techniques allow him to repair tears that some consider “irreparable.” In addition, he performs anatomic and reverse shoulder replacements for shoulder arthritis.
"I am inspired by helping people get back to doing the things they enjoy."
In addition to his position at Southern Oregon Orthopedics, Dr. Denard is an instructor at Oregon Health & Science University and is the Director of Shoulder and Sports Medicine at Providence Medford. He continues to participate in research, presenting this nationally and internationally and regularly instructs other orthopedists at courses on the shoulder. He is also the co-author of a textbook on shoulder surgery: “The Cowboy’s Companion: A Trail Guide for the Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgeon” (get it on Amazon), which provides step-by-step instructions for orthopedic surgeons performing shoulder arthroscopy.
"I love being a shoulder specialist and have had the pleasure of taking care of people with a variety of shoulder problems from all over Southern Oregon and Northern California. I want to provide the highest level of shoulder care possible for my patients. I stay up-to-date on the latest research so that my patients get the best that is currently available in shoulder care. Whether through nonoperative means or surgery, my goal is to help my patients understand their condition and get them using their shoulder again. If you have shoulder pain, we will work together to the best of our ability to make you better."

Dr. Denard was very direct, no sugar coating, and right to the point. He gave me a down to earth explanation in layman’s terms. It was a short visit, and he made me feel very comfortable with the outcome of the procedure. Louis Jeandin
Dr. Denard and his staff are always prompt, professional and genuinely helpful in making sure that all questions are answered and the patient feels secure and confident regarding any procedure or course of treatment. A+!
Very professional, knowledgeable, and caring. I feel like I’m in good hands.
Looking forward to him doing my shoulder surgery I feel very confident in him.
My 2nd surgery with him. As before, took his time answering my questions. Wouldn't have anyone else to do my surgery.
I'm a repeat customer, professional, competent, best in THE WEST DOCTOR FOR FIXING WORN OUT SHOULDERS.
Always knowledgeable & professional
Very knowledgeable
Straight shooters... No B.S Even though I was relentless advocating for my cause, Dr Denard was patient with me. Every point I wanted to make, he heard me out and genuinely listened. Never once did he interrupt me or even do much as attempt to stop me from speaking. There is so much more that I would like to say about Dr. Denard but I'm running out of space so I should radio it up. My situation is very delicate and the simplest thing can cause me life-changing forever handicapped type problems. I am completely confident that Dr Denard is the person that is going to take care of me and give me a better half of the second half of my life should I say. I came to him in a second opinion and I'm staying with him I'm not even going to go back to my regular orthopedic I'm staying with Dr Bernard. So we'll see if he's the good of surgeon as he is a person and a doctor and the champion for us.
Very professional
