Overview

As an orthopedic surgeon, I am able to blend my interests in medicine, physics, and engineering with my passion for helping people. I am particularly interested in the treatment and prevention of sports medicine injuries, and I enjoy working in partnership with my patients to help them recover and reach their goals. I believe in a whole-body approach to treatment and am dedicated to helping my patients not only achieve a full recovery but also improve their overall body function and performance. Through my specialty training in sports medicine and arthroscopy, I provide patients with experienced, individualized non-surgical, and surgical orthopedic care. Additionally, I specialize in total joint replacement of the shoulder, hip, and knee, as well as the care and management of fractures.When I’m not treating patients, I enjoy participating in medical missionary work, writing and performing music, and surfing.

Dr. Heywood is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Tendinitis. His top areas of expertise are Osteoarthritis, Tendinitis, Bursitis, Tenosynovitis, and Hip Replacement.
