About Carter Maurer, MD

The medical field provides a unique opportunity to directly apply clinical principles and innovations while maintaining important personal relationships with patients. I enjoy providing education to my patients and assisting in the process of making the best decision regarding their care. My patients always come first and I believe they know when the timing is right for joint replacement surgery. A properly chosen knee or hip replacement surgery can restore the quality of life that may have been missing for decades in a patient. Outside of work, I enjoy time with my wife and two young children and look forward to the day I am told I have "spare time."

I was first introduced to a resident surgeon and for conversations were very informative concerning my medical condition. I then had additional discussions with the in house surgeon and left with a decision that I am pleased with. Yes I will recommend this Dr whenever asked

Dr. Mauer is a wonderful doctor. He replaced my other knee a little over two years ago. We never had a problem with delays or parking. Now it seems too many doctors are working out of one office/building, which may be causing these unfortunate issues.
