“As a doctor and an athlete, I focus on orthopaedic care with a team approach. I gather information from my patient’s symptoms, their physical examination, and imaging studies, then discuss their individual goals and how we can succeed in reaching them. Once this is completed, a game plan can be established and followed using both my orthopaedic skills and the commitment of the patient to reach a positive outcome.”

"I am dedicated to providing quality orthopedic care in a compassionate and positive environment." 💙

For Dr. Birchard, orthopedics is more than just medicine — it’s about understanding each patient’s unique story.
He says, “One of the things that attracts me to orthopedics is the challenge of analyzing my patient’s unique symptoms, determining the diagnosis, and then finding the most appropriate treatment that meets the needs of the individual patient.”

With expertise in hand and upper extremity surgery, joint replacement, and minimally invasive procedures, Dr. Birchard is committed to helping patients move comfortably and confidently again. Learn more at WaOrtho.com

Dr Dujela just returned from University of Western Australia in Perth where he was the keynote speaker at a foot and ankle surgery conference. It was a quick 2.5 day trip (60 hours of travel and six flights !) where he gave several lectures and lab demonstrations on surgical techniques. We continue to promote education and surgical training internationally as well as here at home with our nationally recognized surgical fellowship program at Washington Orthopaedic Center.

10/10/2025

We love hearing from patients who feel supported every step of the way! At Washington Orthopaedic Center, we know that care starts long before surgery day and we’re honored to help patients feel confident, informed, and cared for throughout their journey. 💙
