Dr. Michael Potter, MD

Dr. Potter is knowledgeable, thorough and made me feel at ease. Together we scheduled surgery.

Fractured elbow that was actually a "shattered" elbow after several weeks of lost time (to heal after injury) - required extensive bone removal and replacement with titanium parts. Quite a scary time and my first time ever having surgery. Dr. Potter and his staff were amazing; they saved my dominant arm with minimal scarring and 98-99% recovery (more than what was initially indicated). Highly recommend!!!

Dr. Potter performed carpal tunnel release surgery on my dominant hand, and I was impressed how quickly the actual surgical procedure was completed. I never even fell asleep and it was painless. Recovery has been slow, but I think strength would have been regained more quickly with some physical therapy. I will be calling to have my other hand fixed today. Thank you, Dr. Potter and team!

Dr. Potter is quite simply a rockstar. I was diagnosed with HADD which began to erode the PIP joints on my index & middle finger on my dominant hand. He worked with me through pain management & ultimately when the time came he let me know the knuckles needed to be replaced. He replaced the knuckles on both fingers even when the index finger is usually fused into place. I can use my hand again. I can bend my index finger & when I did for the first time after surgery I almost cried as it has been almost a year since that was possible. When I asked if this would happen in other joints he responded “We would find out together.” I couldn’t ask for more.

Perfunctory, aloof and indifferent demeanor

He had no clue what was causing my pain, and shuffled me out the door. He seems young, and inexperienced. Not a depth of knowledge, apparently. My new doctor found the problem immediately,

Dr. Potter performed surgery on my right hand. He is the best!!

I broke my collarbone in a bike race after colliding with a barrier at ~30 mph. Broken into three places, Dr Potter plated, screwed, and even "lassoed" a piece of bone, all back into place. He was able repair the bone the same day he saw me. Within 2 days, I was able to perform 85% of normal tasks. By week 4, I was back carrying camera equipment for work with no problem. By week 6, I was 100% back to normal. The entire nursing staff was awesome. Everyone was clear, quick, and did a great job!
