Dr Mason is very knowledgeable. He replied my broken wrist 3 years ago with no problems. The scar is very minimal. Great job, Dr Mason. I recently saw him again for a new concern and he was quick to explain the injury, the xrays and treatment plan. I feel confident my arm will be 100% in record time.

Dr. Mason, is very knowledgeable about his job and care that a person needs. He will give his honest advice and it's up to that individual to add heat to the advice and use it or not. Period trust me,
I'm an one of those people that I did not listen to his advice and I wish I did.
Now, I'm returning to him for his help.
Thanks

He was very professional, and he kept me clam and walked me through the shot to the point the pain was not as bad. Thank you,

Dr. Mason was born and raised in the small town of Malone, NY. He started his training at Clarkson University in Potsdam, NY earning a bachelors degree in Chemical Engineering. His first career was in the manufacturing industry where he worked for several years. He returned to Clarkson to earn a Masters in Engineering and Global Operations Management. During this time, his wife became a nurse and he was exposed to the medical field. At that point he realized he had missed his calling and decided to leave the field of manufacturing behind to attend medical school. He attended the State University of New York Upstate Medical University in Syracuse where he received his Doctor of Medicine degree. After medical school, Dr. Mason completed his orthopaedic surgery residency at the University of Rochester Medical Center in Rochester, NY. Then he completed an additional year of training with a focus on upper extremity surgery, shoulder to hand, at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in Winston Salem, NC.
Dr. Mason currently lives in Poquoson, VA with his wife, two children and their huskies. He enjoys spending time with his family, whether it is at the beach, watching a movie or playing/watching sports with their children. In his spare time he enjoys many activities such as basketball, football, baseball, golf, and fishing as well as working on various home improvement projects.
