“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
