Rich Withers, PA-C

Rich Withers, PA-C, began his medical career in Independence, OR in 2010, where he worked in the family practice field. He quickly transitioned to orthopaedics in 2014 and has made TCO his home base for the last decade. During his time here, Rich has worked with Dr. Stevens, helping to care for most foot and ankle conditions. Additionally, Rich is well-versed in fracture and injury care for all orthopaedic complaints. “I enjoy helping people return to their activities and become pain-free. Sometimes that requires surgery, but many conditions can be treated with non-operative treatment and resolve completely.”

When not at work, Rich is active in raising his three boys with his wife. They enjoy camping, travelling, and fishing, where they try to see at least one new national park per year. “I enjoy being able to work in the community I grew up in and help patients return to their full abilities. It's fun to see old friends and make new friends as I get to work in this profession that allows me to help other people.”
