Took the time to answer all questions. Sat down and wasn’t headed for door immediately. Did a great job on my knee!

My recovery has been quick with little pain. Dr. Looby is a great and talented physician. The nursing staff at the Brookings Health System were very compassionate before and after surgery which kept me calm and comfortable.

From Dr. Looby It seems like a career in medicine has always been my destiny. My grandfather and great grandfather were small town physicians in South Dakota and my dad was a practicing OB/GYN in Sioux Falls. As a youth, I suffered three broken arms from various injuries and then blew out two knees playing football that required surgery. So I guess my interest in orthopedics was inspired by first-hand experience. I will be honored to serve you and your family for their sports medicine and knee and shoulder reconstruction needs.
