Through its specialty-trained experts, staff and four office locations, the practice is able to offer area residents access to exceptional surgical and nonsurgical orthopaedic care for bone, joint and muscle injuries and conditions as well as a wide range of comprehensive services, including our DOC Surgery Center, digital X-rays, durable medical equipment, lower extremity CT scans, MRIs, physical therapy and workers’ compensation.

“Half a century ago, Desert Orthopaedic Center began their commitment to making world-class care accessible to our community,” says Hugh L. Bassewitz, M.D., board-certified, fellowship-trained spine surgeon at Desert Orthopaedic Center. “Today, we could not be more proud of where we are as a practice. It has been a privilege and an honor to serve area residents and to help them get back to their active, healthy lifestyles. All of our doctors and staff look forward to continuing to provide superior care without compromise to our patients for many years to come.”
