About Mark W. Bowers, MD
I became an orthopedic surgeon to help patients restore their function, reduce their pain, and improve their quality of life. The most rewarding part of my job is seeing the difference from when a patient first comes into the office with a problem or injury to their final visit when they have recovered and are able to return to the activities that they enjoy. A patient-centered approach to care is a fundamental principal to my practice. From a young aspiring athlete to a retired construction worker, patients with pain or injury to their foot or ankle come in all different varieties. My goal is to understand each patient’s lifestyle and physical goals in order to help determine which treatment will be best for them. Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, cycling, and traveling with my wife and family.

Dr Bowers and his PA are way most excellent in their listening and inclusion of me in my care. I can't speak highly enough of their care and professionalism.

Exceptional hands on care from the entire office! Dr. Bowers and Daniel Burke(PA) are extremely hands-on, easy to connect and converse with, patient, and caring. They took the time to explain pros and cons of the surgery as well as realistic outcomes. I never felt rushed. This is unique in the medical system today. A huge draw for this office. Thank you

Dr. Bowers was awesome! Not only did he explain everything carefully to me and prescribe all the right procedures, he volunteered and followed through in providing a support letter for my wife and myself to our cruise company where our future cruise is probably now in jeopardy.
