What is does Dr. Fortney enjoy most about orthopaedics? Helping patients return to their sports, hobbies, and activities of daily living.
“I work with athletes and patients to recover from injuries and understand how this must be balanced with a busy sports season, work schedule, or personal life.”
What is Dr. Fortney especially interested in?
“I have a special interest and fellowship training in shoulder, elbow, and sports medicine surgery. Through surgeries such as ACL reconstruction, rotator cuff repair, or shoulder replacement, I enjoy making an immediate impact and improving the quality of life for my patients. I work with patients on an individual basis to help them select the best treatment strategy. Whether the treatment is physical therapy, injections, or surgery, together, we can choose the option that best fits their goals.”
