Dean to perform surgery at JRMC

Jamestown Hospital recently entered into an agreement with Dr. Michael Dean, a board-certified orthopedic surgeon.

“Bringing an orthopedic surgeon will be a major enhancement to patient care. In addition, national data indicates that our economy will see an infusion of $2.3 million from inpatient and outpatient services. Clearly, this is a win-win for everyone,” said hospital CEO Marty Richman.

Dean will be relocating in October to Jamestown from Michigan, where he has been practicing for 20 years. Dean is a graduate of Wayne State Medical University, Detroit, Mich., and did his residency at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. He holds a master’s degree in orthopedic research from Mayo Medical School. He specializes in total joint replacement (hip, knee, and shoulder), knee arthroscopy and fracture repair.

Dean will give patients the option of having procedures performed locally at the new Jamestown Regional Medical Center.
