About David Nordin, M.D.
Dr. Nordin is a general orthopedic surgeon with fellowship training in primary and revision replacement of the hip, knee, and shoulder joints. He has particular experience with the direct anterior approach to hip replacement and, prior to joining St. Croix Health, helped to train other orthopedic surgeons in this technique. Dr. Nordin also has interests in caring for patients with fractures, sports injuries, and other joint disorders. He evaluates patients at both the St. Croix Falls and Frederic locations.
Dr. Nordin dedicated the first year of his practice to volunteer work in Honduras and is excited be a part of the community based mission of St. Croix Health. When not at work, Dr. Nordin enjoys time with his family, especially time outside hiking, biking, canoeing, or running.
“My goal is to make the highest quality orthopedic care available to every patient.”
