Howard Barker, MD
Board Certified
I am lucky – I love what I do! I was drawn to orthopedics early in life due to my own multiple sports injuries. Now I can treat others (and myself!) to help them get back to the life they love. As a fellowship trained foot and ankle surgeon, most of my practice is from the thigh down. However, I still love to take care of shoulder problems as well. I look forward to meeting you and helping with your quest of a healthier life.
