Surgeons

• Orthopedics
  Dr. Neely specializes in foot and ankle surgery as well as general orthopedics. A native of Grand Island, NE, he attended high school in Aberdeen, SD, and considers Aberdeen his hometown.
• Arthroscopy
  As a board certified orthopedic surgeon, Dr. McKenzie’s practice is founded on total joint replacements and revision thereof in the hip and knee; arthroscopy of the knee and shoulder; and spinal treatments including simple discectomies, decompressive laminectomies, and fusions. His mission is to provide patients the same high quality service and compassionate care that he would offer to a member of his own family.
• Ankle Surgery
  Dr. Alvine specializes in minimally invasive and complex spine surgery. He also developed a passion for foot and ankle surgery after he practiced with his father for over ten years. Before his retirement, his father specialized in the treatment of complex foot and ankle disorders, with a special interest in total ankle replacements. Today, Dr. Alvine has a very unique and rewarding practice treating both complex spine conditions as well as foot and ankle problems.
• Joint Replacement
  Dr. Looby and his entire staff were outstanding. He took the time to explain my options for less invasive treatment and ultimately the full hip joint replacement. I appreciated the fact he didn’t want to rush to surgery but was willing to explore and explain all the options. When we did decide on the total hip joint replacement, he took the time to explain the procedure and what the future would look like….I could resume my physical activities including running. I am one month post-operative and have no pain and walking again without crutches or cane.
• Hand Surgery
  His practice is focused on hand surgery, congenital hand reconstruction, and microvascular surgery, as well as upper extremity surgery and tissue transfer. He cares for injuries and deformities from the shoulder to the fingertip. He is a frequent lecturer and guest speaker on topics covering hand and upper extremity surgery. He has given lectures and performed surgery on five continents.
• Orthopedic Surgery
  I started seeing Dr. Watson about one year ago after having orthopedic surgery at another practice. I can’t even begin to explain how happy I am that I made the decision to switch. He and his staff give outstanding treatment in the most caring way! Half of the care one receives is peace of mind that you’ve chosen the right doctor and I now have that peace of mind.
• Bunions
• Neurosurgery
• Arthroscopy
• Hip Replacement
  Dr. McKenzie has been my orthopedic surgeon since having hip replacement surgery 9 years ago, and two more recent surgeries. Each time I have had excellent care, and Dr. McKenzie and/or his staff have answered any questions I’ve had. I’m very thankful to have him and his staff for my care and would highly recommend him to anyone needing hip, knee, or back surgery.
• Knee Replacement
  Dr. Adler appears to be very knowledgeable and did an excellent job on my hip. I would recommend him very highly for hip or knee replacement to others. He has a great personality!
