Michael A. Rauh, MD
I care for patients with various orthopaedic conditions by maximizing their nonsurgical treatment options. In cases where nonsurgical options will not help return patients to full function, I perform surgery. My surgical practice is focused on outpatient arthroscopic procedures of the shoulder and knee, including but not limited to arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs, labral reconstructions following shoulder dislocations, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructions and knee cartilage procedures involving the meniscus. I help my patients make informed decisions, and I am dedicated to improving their lives through compassionate, high-quality care.
