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 highly rated in 5 conditions, according to our data. His top areas of expertise are Osteoarthritis, Tendinitis, Bursitis, Tenosynovitis, and Hip Replacement.
