Bruce Henderson, MD, is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon at Oakland Orthopedic in Pontiac, Michigan. As a fellow in the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, Dr. Henderson has been fortunate to help patients for over 42 years.
Dr. Henderson believes that we were designed by our Creator to have a marvelous and intricate musculoskeletal system that can function and even restore itself with proper self-care and, when necessary, with the help of orthopedic treatment. His primary goal is to help guide patients through that process to maximize the restorative powers that God has given us.
One of the most rewarding parts of orthopedic surgery is the ability to identify and define precisely what is causing the pain or symptoms of each patient.

It is a blessing for Dr. Henderson to see the remarkable improvement that orthopedic procedures can provide for his patients.
