An orthopedic surgeon in Nevada, Dr. Althausen is qualified to identify and treat trauma to the musculoskeletal system, such as the joints, muscles, bones, tendons, and ligaments.

Issues may be the result of congenital disorders, infections, degenerative diseases, or serious injuries. The ultimate goal is to return patients to full or near-full function as quickly as possible.
