Patient ratings are not available for this provider. Why not?

Why are there no ratings?

There is no publicly available rating for this medical professional for one of three reasons:

  • He or she does not see patients
  • He or she sees patients but has not yet received the minimum number of Patient Satisfaction Reviews. To be eligible for display, we require a minimum of 30 surveys. This ensures that the rating is statistically reliable and a true reflection of patient satisfaction.
  • He or she is a resident physician.

About Dr. Garrison

Clinical Biography

A native of Fort Worth, Dr. Garrison attended Southwest Missouri State University and received a Bachelor of Science in Biology. After enrolling at the University of Missouri-Kansas City and earning his medical degree, Dr. Garrison came to the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences for his internship and orthopaedic residency training.

He was in private practice for six years and developed a special interest in fracture care, prompting him to complete an Orthopedic Trauma Fellowship under the direction of Dr. Brent Norris and Dr. Paul Stafford at the University of Oklahoma in Tulsa. After finishing the fellowship in Tulsa, Dr. Garrison then completed a three-month fellowship with Dr. Hans-Christoph Pape at the University of Aachen in Germany, where he concentrated on research of critically injured trauma patients.

He is Board Certified by the American Board of Orthopedic Surgery and is a member of the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, the Orthopaedic Trauma Association and the Mid-America Orthopedic Association.
