About Us

At The Center, we get you back to the life you love.

Since our inception, our mission has been to make a difference in the lives of our fellow Central Oregonians through exceptional care and compassion.

Diverse by design, our team of highly trained orthopedic, neurosurgical, occupational medicine, and physiatry doctors offer a wide range of recovery solutions meant to meet the needs of our assorted patients – a community as expansive and varied as the Central Oregon landscape itself.

We treat our patients with compassion because we understand how important their passions are to them – be it working outside, getting out on the water, or a walk in the woods; we all know what it means to get back to what you love, to find your strength again.

Recovery isn’t always easy, it can be challenging – both physically and mentally – and not just for our patients! Every injury brings something new, and we embrace each patients’ challenges as an opportunity to better ourselves, our practice, and our community.

We do what we do because we love it.

Because it’s all of us thriving together that make our home in the High Desert special.

Because all of us in Central Oregon have to do our part to keep this place alive and well.

The Center. Whatever your passion, find your strength here.
