Dr. Althaus is a fellowship trained orthopedic surgeon who has returned to Sioux City to begin practice. He completed a fellowship with the Insall Scott Kelly Institute for Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine at the NYU Hospital for Joint Diseases in New York City where he learned state of the art techniques for the management of injuries and arthritic conditions involving the hip, knee, and shoulder. He has experience with all of the common approaches to the hip including the direct anterior, lateral, and posterior. At ISK, he worked with some of the best knee surgeons in the country and was exposed to the philosophy and legacy of Dr. John Insall, who is regarded as the father of knee replacement surgery. During fellowship, he received additional training in shoulder reconstruction, rotator cuff, and labral surgery as well as hip arthroscopy for the treatment of labral tears and hip impingement. While in residency at the University of Kansas Hospital, Dr. Althaus was able to acquire a broad knowledge of the surgical and non-surgical management of many orthopedic conditions. This is demonstrated by his performance on standardized exams during training including scoring in the 99th percentile on the Orthopedic In-Training Exam and the 96th percentile on the written portion of the orthopedic board exam. Dr. Althaus and his wife are both natives of Sioux City and are excited to be back. They are busy with two young boys and enjoy spending time with family and friends. They hope to be able to find time to do some golfing in the summer.

Had an excellent outcome on the total knee replacement performed by Dr. Althaus.

Dr. Althaus has been my orthopedic doctor for two years. Six weeks ago he did a total knee replacement on my left knee. After having been in much pain prior to the surgery, I am so pleased to report that I am completely pain free. Not only is he a wonderful surgeon, but is very friendly and takes the time during office visits to ensure all questions are answered. I highly recommend Dr. Althaus. My quality of life is greatly improved, thanks to him!
