Born and raised in the Midwest, a young Jeffry Dressander loved playing sports. With that came several visits to doctor offices due to injuries. The experiences piqued his interest, and coupling it with his love of science, he pursued a calling in medicine.
If you have bone, muscle, joint pain or injury, trust Dr. Dressander for general orthopedic care and/or orthopedic surgery at Avera Orthopedics in Brookings, SD.
