Meet an Associate of Ascent Physical Therapy, and this month's featured Physician:
Vail-Summit Orthopaedics
Dr. John Paul Elton
Specialty: Foot and Ankle
After completing his Orthopaedic surgery residency in San Antonio, Texas, and his fellowship training in Boston, Massachusetts, Dr. Elton is delighted to be back in Colorado where he completed his under-graduate and medical school education.
Dr. Elton's fellowship training has given him the expertise to handle the full spectrum of foot and ankle disorders: from sports injuries and fractures, to nerve and tendon disorders, deformities and chronic pain. He emphasizes that most non-traumatic injuries can be resolved with non-operative treatment.
Dr. Elton is an avid cyclist and enjoys skiing and snowboarding, as well as camping and hiking with his wife and two children.
