Collaborative Excellence Among Distinguished Colleagues

Joining the orthopedic team at Carondelet St. Joseph's Hospital means practicing alongside respected colleagues like Dr. Timothy Dixon, a fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeon recognized as a "Top Doctor" in Tucson for consecutive years.

Unlike many practice environments where competition or isolation defines professional relationships, you'll become part of a collegial team that values collaboration and shared commitment to excellence. The culture fostered within this physician-driven group emphasizes mutual respect and complementary expertise, creating an environment where each surgeon contributes to the practice's reputation for outstanding orthopedic care.

Dr. Dixon's expertise in total joint reconstruction, particularly of the hip and knee, has established a foundation of clinical excellence that you'll help expand. His dedication to quality care and emphasis on comprehensive post-operative therapy aligns with the program's overall commitment to optimal patient outcomes. As a board-certified specialist who has become the surgeon of choice for many revision cases, Dr. Dixon exemplifies the high standards that define the practice and the Joint Replacement Center.

Comprehensive Support Team

Beyond your physician colleagues, you'll work with a dedicated team of professionals who understand the specific needs of orthopedic patients.

Physician longevity within the practice speaks to the supportive environment and professional satisfaction that defines this opportunity. The addition of your expertise in total joint replacement will complement the existing team while allowing you to establish your own reputation within a respected program.

Unlike settings where new physicians struggle to build their practice, you'll step into a rapidly growing program with institutional support and a clear pathway to success.
