“I treat all my patients as individuals, tailoring each person’s treatment to their particular condition.”

As a board-certified orthopedic surgeon, I am committed to providing state-of-the-art surgical and nonsurgical orthopedic care to ensure each patient receives individualized treatment and compassionate service. I focus on adult reconstructive surgery including knee, hip, and shoulder replacement procedures. I also specialize in the revision of previous replacement surgeries. I have been a member of the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons since 1995, and with ongoing training, continue to offer the latest in adult reconstructive care to my patients. In my spare time, I enjoy hunting, snowmobiling, marathon running, and spending time with my wife and family.

"My experience from my knee surgery at Heartland Orthopedics went "great" from the start. From my first appointment with Dr. Dale to my 12 week check-up with him. The staff at both Heartland Orthopedic Specialists and during my 3 day stay at Douglas County hospital were all "very professional". Could not have asked for better care from the entire group. Nice to have such an excellent facility so close to home!!" – Adelia S.
