Specialized shoulder and knee care

Dr. Haber sees athletes and active patients with ACL tears, meniscus injuries, patellar instability, cartilage conditions, rotator cuff problems and other joint injuries.

Nonoperative care is part of the plan

Appropriate treatment may include training modifications, physical therapy, supportive care, injections when suitable and progressive return-to-play guidance. Surgery is considered when the individual benefits and trade-offs support it.

Experience across all levels of sport

Dr. Haber serves as a physician for the U.S. Ski & Snowboard Teams and as an orthopedic team physician for University of Denver Athletics. Whether an athlete competes professionally, collegiately or recreationally, each receives a plan based on the same careful assessment and individual goals.

One personalized plan

An evaluation assesses your injury, sport, training load, prior care, imaging and personal priorities. Dr. Haber's aim is to create an individualized treatment plan to help you achieve your unique goals.

Common questions

Do I need to be an athlete to see a sports medicine surgeon?

No. Sports medicine specialists regularly treat active adults, adolescents and people whose injuries interfere with everyday life.

Is sports medicine always surgical?

No. Nonsurgical strategies, rehabilitation and injury-prevention approaches are essential parts of orthopedic sports medicine.

These accounts concern hip care, not shoulder or knee surgery; clinical recommendations depend on the individual condition.

Orthobiologics and selective PRP treatment

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is sometimes considered for selected orthopedic conditions, including symptoms from certain cases of knee osteoarthritis. Because the research is mixed and varies by diagnosis and preparation, Dr. Haber discusses potential benefits, limitations and established alternatives without promising tissue regeneration or a cure.
