Overview

My approach to patient care is rather simple, listen; engage; and educate. As a prior collegiate football player and life-long athlete, I understand the importance of getting people back to the activities they love. I am a board certified orthopedic surgeon with fellowship training in surgery of the shoulder and knee & use minimally invasive techniques to treat rotator cuffs, meniscus tears, ACL injuries, etc. I perform total joint replacements of the shoulder and knee including partial replacements. If you want to wait forty minutes to spend five minutes with a doctor who doesn't make eye contact or explain anything, there are many good options. If you want to be treated like an adult, become informed about your health, and participate in the process; then please make an appointment.

Dr. Purchase is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Frozen Shoulder. His top areas of expertise are Osteoarthritis, Tendinitis, and Frozen Shoulder.
