About the Practice

Dr. Schumacher is committed to providing the most precise, advanced and compassionate orthopedic care possible. With subspecialty certification in Sports Medicine from the American Board of Orthopedic Surgery, his practice has naturally focused on the athlete, and athletic injury. Ligament reconstruction of the knee, shoulder instability, rotator cuff repair, and hip arthroscopy are a few of the procedures which he finds central to the focus of his practice. Regardless of the type of surgery involved, you can be certain that your procedure will be performed skillfully, cautiously and with specific concern for your well-being. Dr Schumacher is now traveling with the U.S. Ski team to international events like the World Cup, as well as year-round consultation to the team.

We are pleased to have you as a patient. If you have any questions, always feel free to contact our office and our trained staff will assist you in any way possible.

Patient Testimonials

Barbara Knapp
Dr. Schumacher performed arthoscopy on my knee for a meniscus tear 6 weeks ago. He diagnosed the problem quickly, shared all the information I wanted prior to making my choice for surgery. Today my knee is great and I have already returned to regular exercise. The folks at AFOC Physical Therapy were also great. They asked what my goal was and in 6 weeks helped me work towards it. They are a big reason why I am almost 100% in such a short time. Thanks AFOC!
