John R. Wickman, MD

Dr. Wickman is a board-certified shoulder and elbow surgeon who treats a full spectrum of conditions, from straightforward problems to complex reconstructions. He cares for athletes, active older adults, laborers and patients facing revision or failed prior surgery.

His surgical expertise includes arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, arthroscopic labral repair and arthroscopic glenoid bone block procedures for shoulder instability. When joint replacement is needed, Dr. Wickman tailors the approach to each patient and offers advanced options, including 3D surgical planning, robotic-assisted arthroplasty and customized 3D-printed implants, when they are indicated.

Central to his philosophy is the belief that knowing when to operate is as important as knowing how. Dr. Wickman offers every form of non-operative care and he partners with each patient to choose the path that best fits their needs and goals.

In clinic, he works with patients to set clear goals for returning to the work, sport or hobbies they love. His aim for every patient is to provide a better quality of life.
