I joined Dickson-Diveley Orthopaedics in 1985. I have practiced for over 25 years as an orthopedic surgeon focused on compassionate care of patients with orthopedic injuries. I have developed a large practice treating work-related injuries, with special interest in shoulder injuries and shoulder replacement surgery.
The Kansas City Orthopaedic Institute and our orthopaedic physician clinics are taking precautions to protect our patients, families, providers and visitors as we continue to deliver care during this health emergency. As part of the Saint Luke’s Health System, we are modeling our precautions and procedures from Saint Luke’s. The new knowledge and changes are being constantly reviewed, and our policies will be updated as needed.
