About Me

A patient’s journey through orthopedic medicine is personal. With the right information and expert input, you are empowered to steer your treatment toward the best possible outcome.

Trust Shawn Lerew, DO, as your guide of orthopedic expertise to alleviate musculoskeletal pain, conditions or trauma.

“My approach is to be open and honest with patients, providing them with the information necessary to make informed decisions regarding their health care,” said Dr. Lerew. “We work together to identify your specific needs and the treatments that would be most effective for you.”

Expert Care for Your Bones, Muscles and Joints

Dr. Lerew focuses on caring for fractures in the adult and older adult populations. Some of his specialized services treat:

  • Fractures of the upper and lower extremities
  • Pelvic fractures
  • Poorly healed fractures
  • Fractures after hip and knee replacements
  • Fractures of the shoulder 

“I utilize both nonsurgical options as well as minimally invasive surgical techniques to help you feel better and return to what’s important to you,” said Dr. Lerew.
