Working together to provide your orthopedic care, our family of doctors, nurses, and office staff welcomes you. As a patient, we also now consider you to be a part of our extended family. Orthopaedic Associates has a long-standing tradition of quality patient care. We offer onsite x-ray and are staffed by multilingual and experienced medical professionals. Our physicians have subspecialty training and expertise in a number of areas, practicing the restoration and preservation of the musculoskeletal system. Our roots date back to 1935 when Dr. Manley Shaw, the only orthopedic surgeon in Idaho at the time, affiliated with Dr. Pittinger and Dr. Quentin Mack who were general surgeons. Dr. Tregoning later joined them in 1952. They practiced at the Pittinger Medical Center on Campus Drive at Boise State University. In 1973 the office moved to the Medical Arts Building on Curtis Road. It was at this time that the doctors limited their practice to orthopedics. Dr. Keith Taylor joined the practice in 1973. Orthopaedic Associates was incorporated in November 1973. It consisted of Drs. Shaw, Tregoning and Taylor. "Pete" later joined Orthopaedic Associates in 1978. The office moved to its present location ( 901 N. Curtis Road ) in 1985 when Dr. Jeffrey Hessing joined the office, followed by Dr. Mark Clawson in 1991, Dr. Mark Meier in 1992, Dr. Timothy Doerr in 1997, Dr. Gregory Schweiger in 1999, and Dr. Jared Tadje in 2007. Dr. Keith Taylor retired in April 1997.
