Welcome

My approach to treating patients

As President and Founder of the Center for Sports Orthopaedics, preservation and 'resurfacing' of patients' natural joints are the major areas of expertise and focus of David H Trotter MD.

Associated with the largest global series of interpositional knee 'disc' (including OrthoGlide) patient groups, Dr. David Trotter has developed an international reputation. Having served as a team physician for the US Soccer Team, Dr. Trotter's experience ranges from the treatment of severe articular cartilage injuries and complex injuries including 'ACL's'.

Joint cartilage supplementation, minimally invasive and/or more natural constructs are utilized, often dramatically postponing and/or potentially avoiding total (or even partial) replacement of knee and shoulder joints.

Joint-sparing and 'resurfacing' of painful arthritic joints have become a very special focus area of Dave Trotter MD, President and Founder of the Center for Sports Orthopaedics, SC. Dr. Trotter has performed the largest series of 'hybrid' Medial/OrthoGlide 'disc' with PatelloFemoral/'Hemi-Cap' bi-compartmental knee procedures.
