Dr. Ryan takes a patient-center approach to care and emphasizes shared decision-making with his patients. “I work to earn a patient’s trust and best understand their goals. With that foundation in place, we can make a successful treatment plan which may or may not require surgery.” He is expertly trained in larger procedures such as shoulder and elbow joint arthroplasty, as well as complex trauma and microvascular procedures which require the use of the operating microscope. Dr. Ryan also offers a new reconstructive technique for basal joint arthritis to minimize immobilization in patients and allows them to return to activities.
