In addition, Duke surgeons have years of experience perfecting the microsurgical techniques for reattaching limbs as well as transplanting living tissue from one part of the body to another, for reconstructive purposes.
In addition to orthopaedic surgeons with a wide range of expertise, our staff includes three orthopaedic traumatologists -- Steven A. Olson, MD, Rachel Reilly, MD, and Robert Zura, MD.
