Dr. Reichard’s passion for helping others maintain active lifestyles is rooted in his previous career as a mountain guide and ski patroller in the Tetons before he pursued his medical training. This unique experience gives him a deep understanding of the physical demands that outdoor activities place on the body, further fueling his commitment to ensuring his patients remain as healthy and active as possible.

Dr. Reichard completed his medical school education at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, before finishing his orthopedic surgery residency at Case Western/University Hospitals in Cleveland.
