About Me
Daniel Hesse, MD, is an orthopedic surgeon with an emphasis in orthopedic trauma and sports medicine. Outside of work, he and his wife enjoy outdoor activities, traveling, and spending time with their children. Dr. Hesse, a car nut, is actively working on obtaining his Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) racing license.
Philosophy of Medicine
"As a trauma surgeon, most of the patients I meet will not present on an elective basis. It is my priority to demonstrate to the patient they are in good hands when they are at their most vulnerable. I strongly believe in direct communication and will relentlessly advocate for my patient's best surgical management and rehabilitation interests."
