I frequently utilize advanced ultrasound guidance to attain the most accurate benefit from joint and soft tissue injections for my patient’s pain management. It is my mission to provide all my patients excellent service, as well as compassionate care. I always strive to provide you the same high quality of orthopedic care that I would offer to a member of my family.
In addition to my extensive medical commitments, I enjoy running, camping, hiking and other outdoor activities, travel and spending time with my family. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to further improve your experience at Ortho Illinois. My goal is to provide you the best medical care available in a comfortable, nurturing environment.
I am looking forward to meeting you.

Very professional and kind
Always the best treatment one could expect. Has helped me tremendously.
He was very nice and professional, however, I had to go to the Riverside clinic for my test but all of my reminder messages said to come to the Roxbury location which I did but then I had to go to the riverside location to make my appointment. Not sure of the confusion.
Dr. Enke had excellent bedside manner and explaining each step of the EMG procedure. He made me feel as comfortable as possible doing the procedure. Thank you Dr. Enke for the positive experience .
