Skilled Traumatologists

The mission of the Hughston Trauma division is to care for the trauma patient and to contribute to the profession by being on the forefront of value driven healthcare. We strive to develop sustainable fracture care programs and help navigate the healthcare marketplace with tailored processes.

Our goal is to be considered the best quality provider of orthopedic fracture care, not only by our patients, but by our institutions and in the regions we serve. We strive to be continually improving our quality and to provide comprehensive care of all fractures and fracture related problems.

  • We always place the patient first and treat them as we would our family.
  • We never turn away from any adult fracture or fracture related problem.
  • We never compromise our quality and integrity.
  • When we can’t provide service, we should help find a solution
