Our Physician Assistants
The physician assistants at the Orthopaedic & Spine Center of the Rockies take care of patients in close collaboration with their surgeon.
Patients may see one of our PA's to prepare for surgery (the pre-op appointment), at the time of surgery, or afterward at a post-operative appointment. Patients may also have a regular office appointment with a PA.
