Teton Orthopaedics: Comprehensive Orthopaedic Care in Jackson Hole

Teton Orthopaedics is the regional orthopaedic specialty practice serving Jackson Hole and the broader Teton region for 30+ years, with offices at 555 E Broadway in Jackson and Teton Outpatient Services at 150 Buffalo Way. The team includes board-certified, fellowship-trained orthopaedic surgeons specializing in knee, hip, shoulder, spine, and sports medicine. The right fit is patients with orthopaedic injuries (acute and chronic), athletes recovering from sports injuries, and anyone needing surgical evaluation or non-surgical orthopaedic care. The wrong fit is anyone needing primary care; for that, route to a primary-care clinic or family medicine practice.

Teton Orthopaedics: Advanced Bone, Joint & Sports Injury Care

A multi-specialty orthopaedic practice with the standard scope. Sports medicine: ACL reconstruction, knee and shoulder arthroscopy, return-to-sport programs. Joint reconstruction: hip and knee replacement. Spine care: surgical and non-surgical. Sports-injury care for the active Jackson population (skiing, hiking, riding). Imaging and diagnostic services on-site at the outpatient facility. Coordination with Four Pines Physical Therapy and other regional rehab providers for post-surgical recovery.

Why people use this practice

Three reasons. First, regional specialization. Orthopaedic surgeons at the practice see Jackson-specific injury patterns daily (ski-knee, ski-shoulder, hiker-and-rider injuries); the experience compresses diagnostic time. Second, fellowship training. The team's surgeons are fellowship-trained in their subspecialties, which matters for complex cases. Third, local access. Without a regional practice, complex orthopaedic care would require travel to Idaho Falls or Salt Lake City; Teton Orthopaedics keeps that care in the valley.

How to plan a visit

Call to schedule an appointment. New-patient intake takes longer than follow-up; budget extra time on the first visit. Bring relevant medical history, any imaging or surgical reports, and a list of current medications. Most insurance is accepted; verify coverage before the first visit. For after-hours or emergency injuries, route to the emergency department; this is a clinic-and-surgery practice, not 24-hour emergency.

Honest limits to know

Two honest tradeoffs. First, peak-season scheduling can run tight; ski-injury weeks fill the calendar fast in winter, and outdoor-injury weeks fill summer. Book early when possible. Second, surgical scheduling depends on availability of operating-room time and pre-operative clearances; complex cases may take weeks to schedule.

Before you go

For ski-season knee or shoulder injuries, get an early evaluation rather than waiting it out. Earlier intervention shortens overall recovery and lets you make informed decisions about treatment options before the injury settles into chronic patterns. The same applies to summer running, hiking, and biking injuries; a quick evaluation by a sports-medicine specialist beats home rehabilitation guesswork.

Final call

For specialty orthopaedic care across sports medicine, joint reconstruction, and spine in Jackson Hole, Teton Orthopaedics is the established regional practice. Schedule early, bring your records, and use the local-specialist access as the asset it is.
