Dr. Hartman has experience with many kinds of sports injuries and children's orthopaedic conditions. He takes care of patients from OCR's service area of northern Colorado, Wyoming, and western Nebraska.

He has advanced training in both pediatric orthopaedics and sports medicine surgery through two fellowship programs (2009-2010), at Children's Hospital in Aurora, CO, and the Cincinnati Sports Medicine Center, respectively.
