(Livingston, MT)—Livingston HealthCare (LHC) is excited to announce that Blake Burkert, MD, has joined our Rural Health Clinic’s Orthopedics team and has already begun to see patients. Dr. Burkert specializes in general orthopedic surgery, spine surgery, and interventional pain management.
He enjoys helping his patients overcome pain and regain control of their lives. “I love being able to be a part of someone's journey to take their life back and return to the activities that they love,” he says. “Being able to see the transition of someone at their worst to being able to return to the activities that they once loved is humbling.”
“I’m thrilled that Dr. Burkert chose to join our team of talented surgeons. Having an orthopedic surgeon based in Livingston is a great step towards allowing patients to stay close to home and not have to travel to Bozeman or Billings for care,” says Bruce Whitfield, CEO of Livingston HealthCare.
