“I chose orthopaedics because I prefer interacting with a wide variety of patients, from the young to the elderly, in a way that allows me to improve their quality of life. I enjoy helping patients get better, get stronger and have less pain. I enjoy the opportunity to return patients to their pre-injury level of activity, whether it’s golf, tennis, hiking or whatever their leisure or sport activity may be.”
“For me, the patient always comes first. Most patients have already done extensive research into their condition prior to seeing me. I believe that an interactive approach with patients will lead us to a mutually agreed upon treatment plan. I hope to give my patients the opportunity for an improved quality of life with less pain, better function and improved outlook for their future.”
In his free time, Dr. Pflueger supports Yavapai Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Arizona, the YMCA and Yavapai Regional Medical Center. He believes in exercise and personal fitness, and his hobbies include exercise, fly-fishing, woodworking and family activities.

Very Professional
Very positive appointment
Great guy, talks to you, not down to you.
Dr. Pflueger is personable and gives me a chance to talk and he listens. Then he asks questions that are to the point. In my case he offered a couple of options moving forward with no pressure. I appreciate the back and forth.
Great 👍
The doctor with great! Checking in was not so great. I waited 25 minutes at the door with six people in front of me. Checking out there were five people in front of me. That process was extremely slow. I spent more time standing in line waiting to check in then I did with the doctor.
Dr Pflueger listens to his patients and has an excellent bedside manner!
Visit was for a knee injury. He was professional, thorough, and friendly. He actually remembered me from a 2022 shoulder injury. He gave recommendations on avoiding a chronic problems, given my advanced age.
Took care of my knees, great surgeon!
