Overview
Dane Hansen, D.O., is an orthopedic surgeon at Summit Orthopedics specializing in hip and knee arthritis and joint replacement, serving patients in the Minneapolis/St. Paul metro area. The challenge of treating arthritic conditions led Dr. Hansen to a fellowship in adult hip and knee reconstruction, where he learned minimally invasive surgical techniques and gained extensive experience treating complex cases. “To give people the best care, you want to offer a depth of expertise. My goal is always to treat patients conservatively with medication and other therapies before considering surgery. My job is to help patients understand all of their options so they can make choices that will get them back to the life they love.”.
