Sounds like Bellin Health signed a huge name Free Agent!

Dr. Robert Anderson, who some seem to believe is the top U.S. foot/ankle doctor for professional athletes

If you’re an NFL player and have a foot or ankle injury, there’s a good chance you’ll come to Green Bay.

That’s where the renowned Dr. Robert Anderson, surgeon to many star athletes, will be setting up shop. He has joined the Green Bay Packers' medical team and will partner in a new practice at the Bellin Health Titletown Sports Medicine and Orthopedics that will open next month adjacent to Lambeau Field.

I love the idea that players don't have to go far for the expert (and sounds like they'll also be open to the public , though expensive probably.

I got mixed feeling about making other injured players come to GB though... some might fall in love with it, others might say, there is no way I'm signing there... even if they're top dollar.

Good, we need some good medical advice. Maybe he can keep Vince Biegel in one piece too.

I'm sure that Dr. Anderson is a brilliant surgeon and will be a fine addition to GB and I wish him all the best of luck . However he does not have the International reputation enjoyed by Dr. James Andrews of Birmingham, Alabama . Dr. Andrews may be 75 yrs old , but I have not heard that he has retired from practice. He is the Dr. that the best athletes have turned to for decades . 🙄

Also, James Andrews did Robert Griffin III surgery and approved him to get back on the field... just to get injured again. While Anderson did Cam Newton... which one of those guys would you want more again?

In his career, Anderson, who was recently the an assistant team physician for the Carolina Panthers, has worked on a number of athletes such as Derek Jeter, Eli Manning, Julio Jones, Ryan Kalil, Kyle Busch, Kevin Durant, Miguel Cabrera and Cam Newton. There was also a report that Anderson repaired a ligament in the toe of Sterling Sharpe back in 1993. However, that was never confirmed as Anderson did work on a turf toe of a Packers player, but the player was unnamed.

Also Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, Corey Linsley, Eddie Lacy and Ty Montgomery have has work done by Dr. Anderson and who knows, that recent Packers work might be why talks got started for this.

As I already stated, I'm quite sure that Dr. Anderson is a brilliant surgeon , but you can't say that he is as/more famous than Dr. Andrews. Perhaps this move to GB will enhance his notoriety .

I cracked my left knee cap some years back and found that my Orthopedic Dr. had spent time with the New England Patriots . He is in great demand here in Richmond, Va. . I have sense then met others that praise his skills and gentle manor. He is not to my knowledge famous beyond central Va. , but he is a great Dr.
