Trauma Physicians

Orthopedic Doctors - Denver

Some of Panorama's orthopedic doctors in Denver specialize in orthopedic surgery trauma cases, including pelvic and hip fractures, as well as complex intra-articular fractures. Panorama Orthopedics surgeons are on call to provide orthopedic surgery trauma coverage 24 hours a day, every day. The majority of our trauma patients are seen at St. Anthony Hospital in Denver, which has been designated a Level I trauma center by the State of Colorado Department of Health. Emergency physicians, trauma surgeons, neurosurgeons, critical care doctors, anesthesiologists, radiologists, nurses and CT techs are in-house, 24 hours a day. A Level I designation is the highest level of definitive and comprehensive emergency and trauma care for patients with complex injuries, including those who require orthopedic surgery in Denver.

Drs. Bharat Desai, Peter Lammens, Patrick McNair, Edmund Rowland and Nimesh Patel co-direct Panorama Orthopedic & Spine Center's Trauma Department. All five are fellowship-trained orthopedic traumatologists. In addition to traumatologists, Panorama Orthopedics' Trauma Service is comprised of certified physician assistants specializing in trauma and a patient liaison. Other physicians at Panorama Orthopedics & Spine Center assist by taking call and covering follow-up clinics. Panorama Orthopedics also has trauma fellows, who are orthopedic surgeons that have completed their residency training but are taking an extra year to learn more about orthopedic trauma.

The spine surgeons at Panorama Orthopedics & Spine Center manage all spine trauma at St. Anthony Central. Cases range from motor vehicle accidents to spine trauma from the ski slopes.
